About Pika Speech
Pika Speech is an expressive text-to-speech model built for the inflection, rhythm, and timbre that make narration, characters, and spoken moments feel human. Rather than simply reading text aloud, it is designed to set the tone and give creators control over how a line is delivered. Users can choose from preset voices or create a voice clone from only a few seconds of reference audio, then direct the performance with a caption describing the desired delivery, such as bright and brisk, low and reflective, crisp and formal, or a custom style. The model generates 48 kHz audio and supports requests up to five minutes long, making it suitable for narration, character dialogue, product experiences, storytelling, and other spoken-content workflows. It is also designed for fast iteration: in Pika’s local testing, a real-time factor of 0.02 means that one minute of speech takes about one second to generate.
