This week, Speechify's SIMBA 3.2 hits the No. 1 overall slot on Artificial Analysis overall global speech leaderboard. This is the widest leaderboard in the world for AI voice. It includes U.S. & Chinese models. The hyperscalers, the labs, and startups. Congratulations to Tyler Weitzman for spearheading this effort. Tyler started this research while at Stanford University five years ago. Since then, he has been working towards a single goal of making Speechify the top AI voice model provider in the world focusing on both quality & cost. I've been lucky to know Tyler for 15+ years as we were in the same high school dorm. While we may have been able to go faster just focused on quality, our consumer DNA and business model called for architecture decisions early on to make sure we could basically provide unlimited speech to our users for $139/year. That translates into what is today the SOTA TTS model at the best-in-class price, which is rare in AI research where better performance usually means higher costs. Excited for this next phase of Speechify, as others get to use our models to build their own amazing experiences and push the bounds of how AI can extend our work.

Amazing!
Nice analysis and heart wishings fulfill for reads.knowledge lusty.But cost should divided among according to (1) second language with off cost so that everyone snatch benifits.Thank you.And thanks alot your speechy launching.weldone
Impressive to see the focus on both quality and cost. That’s a combination that can have a real impact on adoption
It is always encouraging to see years of focused research translate into practical products that people can actually use at scale.

Congratulations to the Speechify team! Achieving state-of-the-art performance is impressive, but doing it while keeping cost efficiency front and center is what really stands out. That balance is what makes advanced AI practical for developers building real products. Excited to see what the community creates with SIMBA 3.2.
