Overview

With advanced semantic understanding, Speech-01 ensures its generated speech matches the context of the input text, offering a smoother and more engaging user experience. Its ability to authentically convey emotions makes it a standout compared to standard text-to-speech tools, providing a more human touch.

MiniMax offers Speech-01 through a secure, flexible, and reliable API platform, giving businesses and developers the tools to add this advanced speech generation to their products. The API simplifies AI application development while maintaining top-notch security and performance.

During our test, the model - still marked 'Beta' - produced good emotional output but tended to swallow some word endings.

The newer model - speech-02 seems much more polished and advanced.

In mid 2025 it introduced custom voice design feature and offered music generation in beta, with Music-1.5 music model. Music duration: 90s.

In August 2025 Speech 2.5 text to speech model dropped.

Prompt:
A sad-sweet indie song with soft, whispery singing. Sounds close and lo-fi, like someone recording in their bedroom while going through stuff they’re not ready to move on from. The singer thinks back on a thing they had after hearing an old voicemail.

Nice melodic song. Obviousely, you want to supply own text or you'll be getting the standard 'chasing shadows' and 'echoes' lyrics, but voice, pronunciation, intonation and music is good.

Prompt:
Artificial intelligence is a life-changing, sometimes life-like phenomenon—but it’s not without its quirks. Take, for example, the AI assistant who confidently declared, 'I am definitely not plotting world domination—wink, wink.' It’s enough to make you laugh... nervously. <#0.5#> This test was generated for AIcreators dot tools, your go-to destination for AI software made for creators, filmmakers, and educators. !
