Was really happy to see this, this actually enables a lot of applications that was cost prohibitive. Unfortunately the quality still seems quite off, when I test this on a lot of books for audio script for my app.
For example: There are pauses where there shouldn't be, pitch changes suddenly for a word and goes back making listening to audiobook a bit of a bad experience when it doesn't reliably deliver. I tested the same with eleven labs with which is more consistent. Would love to switch if quirks like this are addressed.
Are you guys working on any quality improvements?
might be cheaper but the quality is mediocre at best. guess you really get what you pay for.
