Building on the success of Speech 02, which we released in May, Speech 2.5 delivers three major breakthroughs:

- Significantly enhanced multilingual performance
- More realistic and accurate voice cloning
- Expanded language support to over 40 languages

A Leap in Multilingual Expressiveness: World-Class Chinese, and Major Upgrades for English and More

Speech 2.5 achieves a significant leap in multilingual capabilities. Its performance in Chinese now sets a new global standard in terms of low error rate, voice similarity, and natural rhythm.

At the same time, performance in English and other languages has been comprehensively upgraded, effectively eliminating the "robotic" feel common in other text-to-speech systems. Whether it’s for daily conversation or professional broadcasting, the output is smooth and natural.

For example, listen to the solemn vow of Hamlet or the passionate commentary of a Spanish sports announcer:

More Lifelike Voice Cloning: Replicating Accent, Style, and Emotion with Incredible Detail

Achieving state-of-the-art precision, Speech 2.5 brings voice cloning to a new level of realism. It can flawlessly replicate a person's unique accent, speaking style, and emotional tone.

This capability extends across languages, preserves regional accents within the same language, and even captures the subtle vocal characteristics of different age groups, ensuring the output sounds truly authentic.

What would it sound like if the Queen of England were to introduce the new Speech 2.5? From its pauses and rhythm to its distinct pronunciation, the model perfectly preserves the pure "Queen's English" accent.

Cross-lingual cloning is no longer a challenge. Even when switching between languages like Italian and English, the model maintains the original speaker's unique vocal characteristics and accent.
