MAI-Voice-2
MAI-Voice-2 is Microsoft AI’s most expressive and natural-sounding text-to-speech model to date, built for production voice experiences where fidelity, language coverage, speaker consistency, and emotional range directly shape the user experience. It is designed for assistants, customer support, audiobooks, accessibility experiences, games, podcasts, courses, simulations, and creator workflows where voice quality must sound natural, fluid, and trustworthy. It expands from English-only support to 15 languages while maintaining naturalness and expressiveness, with support for English, Italian, French, German, Hindi, Spanish, Portuguese, Korean, Chinese, Turkish, Russian, Thai, Dutch, Romanian, and Hungarian. MAI-Voice-2 offers granular emotion control through tags such as sad, whispered, and excited, along with role-based expressive speech for experiences like motivational trainers, sports commentators, or character voices.

Mintza
Mintza teaches you to speak a new language by actually speaking it, in live voice conversations with a bilingual AI teacher. Pick the language you speak and the one you are learning, then talk: real-time voice with natural pacing, no transcripts and no waiting for the app to think. When you freeze or slip up, your teacher corrects you in the moment, and if you get stuck it helps you in the language you already know, then brings you back.
Fifteen languages in any pairing and direction: English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, German, Greek, Chinese, Russian, Turkish, Swedish, Arabic, Japanese, Korean, and Hebrew, with regional accents such as Argentine Spanish, Parisian French, or Brazilian Portuguese. Rehearse a job interview, order coffee, navigate a doctor visit, or just chat about your day.
Sign in with Apple or Google for 10 free minutes, then subscribe for monthly conversation minutes. Available on iPhone, iPad, and Android.
