Today we’re launching Octave (Omni-capable text and voice engine), the first LLM for text-to-speech. Unlike conventional TTS that merely “reads” words, Octave is a speech-language model that understands what words mean in context, unlocking a new level of expressiveness and nuance—and new AI voice capabilities. It acts out characters, generates voices from prompts, and takes instructions to modify the emotion and style of a given utterance.
