Gradium TTS now runs on an upgraded default model focused on more expressive speech and better reliable pronunciation for production voice agents. Improved natural prosody, phrasing, intonation, and pacing. This is especially noticeable in conversational turns and longer passages. The model is better at spelling out email addresses, reference numbers, confirmation codes, and acronyms such as API, SQL, and URL. The upgraded model is now the default. If your integration uses the default model, you are already on the new Gradium TTS model with no code changes required. Every voice from the previous model generation is available on the upgraded model, including custom voices. You do not need to re-clone or recreate voices. Integrations pinned to a specific model can switch by changing the model identifier. To stay on the previous model temporarily, set model_name to gradium-tts-202602. The previous model will be gradually phased out over the next few weeks.
