After reaching 15M+ users, today we're launching Drama 3, the most emotive and controllable TTS model.
$52M seed round. 15M+ users. But this is what we're most proud of yet. Introducing Drama 3: the most emotive and controllable TTS model in the world And yes, it's open-weight. You can now control how even a single word should sound, change its tone, and shift your voice mid-sentence. Uncle Roger was impressed too.

Introducing Drama 3 (preview): the most controllable TTS model ever. Describe the tone, pacing, and character in simple language, without thinking in audio tags. Shift your voice mid-sentence, generate a multi-character scene, or fix only a single word. Comment DRAMA to get an API key 🐟

I needed a way to know if our model is actually better. So I built a blind test into our production platform and let 5,098 users decide. We tested S2 Pro and S1 against ElevenLabs V3, ElevenLabs 2.5 Flash, ElevenLabs Multilingual V2, Inworld TTS 1.5 Max, and MiniMax Speech 2.8 HD. S2 Pro ranked #1 overall, nearly 1.7x the next closest model. But what stood out most was the per-language gap. In Chinese, S2 Pro scored 8.11. The next closest competitor scored 2.36. Most TTS companies build for English first and then extend it to fit everything else. Our multilingual data pipeline is why the gap is widest where others invest the least. Feel free to check out the our report at fish.audio/blog/blind-tts-pr…
Fish Audio performed a 10-day blind test across 5,098 real user comparisons on production traffic. Our S2 Pro model ranked #1 overall with a 66% win rate - outperforming the next closest competitor by over 60%. - S2 Pro beat ElevenLabs V3 60% to 40% - S2 Pro beat Inworld 80% to 20% - S2 Pro beat MiniMax 95% to 5% - #1 in every language tested No one knew they were part of a test. They just picked the voice they liked more. Check full methodology and results here → fish.audio/blog/blind-tts-pr…

OpenAI just released AGI (all ghibli images) Today we launch W25. Our most powerful batch yet. They broke the benchmarks for acceleration so much that 0-$3M will never hit the same…and if you want to know why we’re building a ring of servers around the sun, watch carefully.
