Audio

Eleven v4 Turbo is a low-latency text-to-speech model from ElevenLabs. It keeps Eleven v4's expressive delivery and inline audio tags, supports more than 90 languages and accepts up to 10,000 characters per request.

It is the pick when an expressive voice has to answer quickly, such as voice assistants and interactive apps that still need emotion in the reading. Hormouz serves Eleven v4 Turbo on two endpoints: the OpenAI-compatible /v1/audio/speech, which returns the audio in the same response, and /v1/predictions for background jobs. Set voice to one of the model's own voices, for example "george", and response_format to mp3 or pcm.

Billing is per character of input text; the current rate is in the price table on this page, and you pay only for what you use. Hormouz provides stable access to it from inside Iran, with no foreign credit card or circumvention tooling required.
