Intelligent speech synthesis

Case-insensitive

USD 0.0005/call

USD 0.00075/call

Billing rule: The number of billable calls for speech synthesis is based on the number of characters in each request (UTF-8 encoded). A Chinese character, an English letter, or a punctuation mark (full-width or half-width) is counted as one character. A request of up to 100 characters is counted as one billable call. Each additional 100 characters count as one more billable call. A single request can contain a maximum of 300 characters.

Billing example: If you use this feature in the Chinese mainland, a 102-character request is counted as 2 billable calls and costs 2 calls × USD 0.0005/call = USD 0.001. A 201-character request is counted as 3 billable calls and costs 3 calls × USD 0.0005/call = USD 0.0015.
