Zonos v0.1 Transformer is a text-to-speech model from Zyphra built on a pure transformer architecture. It offers the same American and British English voice coverage as the Hybrid variant, and is suited for deployments where a transformer-only inference stack is preferred.

Use zyphra/zonos-v0.1-transformer with the OpenRouter API:
OpenRouter provides a text-to-speech API that converts text into natural-sounding audio. Send text and a voice selection, and receive raw audio bytes in your chosen format.
The response is a raw audio stream (not JSON). The generation ID is returned in the X-Generation-Id response header for tracking.
For information about using third-party SDKs and frameworks with OpenRouter, please see our frameworks documentation.
Synthesizes audio from the input text. Returns a raw audio bytestream in the requested format (e.g. mp3, pcm, wav).

|---|---|---|---|
max_tokens | integer | — | This sets the upper limit for the number of tokens the model can generate in response. |
temperature | float | 1 | This setting influences the variety in the model's responses. |
top_p | float | 1 | This setting limits the model's choices to a percentage of likely tokens: only the top tokens whose probabilities add up to P. |
stop | array | — | Stop generation immediately if the model encounter any token specified in the stop array. |
frequency_penalty | float | 0 | This setting aims to control the repetition of tokens based on how often they appear in the input. |
presence_penalty | float | 0 | Adjusts how often the model repeats specific tokens already used in the input. |
repetition_penalty | float | 1 | Helps to reduce the repetition of tokens from the input. |
top_k | integer | 0 | This limits the model's choice of tokens at each step, making it choose from a smaller set. |
seed | integer | — | If specified, the inferencing will sample deterministically, such that repeated requests with the same seed and parameters should return the same result. |
min_p | float | 0 | Represents the minimum probability for a token to be considered, relative to the probability of the most likely token. |
response_format | map | — | Forces the model to produce specific output format. |
