About
Bland Speech v3 is a text-to-speech model designed to produce voice audio that sounds like a real person, especially for phone-call experiences where overly polished delivery can feel artificial. It preserves human details such as breaths, stumbles, pauses, laughs, and throat-clearing through performance tags that are performed instead of read aloud. Users can provide their own script or use Director to describe a dialogue and have Bland write the words, timing, and delivery before generating speech. It supports voice cloning: an instant clone can be created from roughly 10 seconds of audio, while professional cloning uses 30 minutes or more of verified audio, with users confirming that every voice is theirs to use. Bland Speech is available through a web studio and a single /v1/speak API endpoint using bearer-key authentication. Audio streams through HTTP chunked transfer or WebSocket and returns PCM16 WAV at 44.1 kHz.
