# Maya1 API

> Expressieve tekst-naar-spraak met een prompt voor stemomschrijving en inline-emotietags

Zet tekst van maximaal 5000 tekens om in spraak. De vereiste `prompt` van maximaal 500 tekens beschrijft de stem, zoals leeftijd, accent en toon. Emotietags zoals laugh of whisper kunnen in de tekst worden ingesloten. Kies een samplefrequentie van 48 kHz of 24 kHz en wav- of mp3-uitvoer; `max_tokens` begrenst de audiolengte.

- Model id: `maya`
- Made by: Maya Research
- Category: Text to Speech
- Output: audio
- Estimated price per run: $0.049 / run (cheapest run $0.049 (49 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/maya`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/maya`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/nl/developers/models/maya

## Pricing

Price: **$0.049 / run**. Estimated from the typical cost of one run. The quote is exactly what the run charges.

The full example input below costs $0.049 = 49 API credits (1 request × 49 API credits).

Prices are the upstream price in USD, paid from the API balance in API credits (1000 API credits = 1 USD). `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/maya` with the same JSON body returns the exact price for that input; the quote is exactly what a run charges. Invalid input is never charged and failed or canceled requests are refunded automatically.

## Input parameters

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `text` |  | string | yes |  | ≤ 5000 characters | Tekst voor spraaksynthese waarin emotietags in de vorm <emotion_name> op elke positie zijn toegestaan, zoals in 'Hello world! <excited> This is amazing!' of 'I can't believe this <sigh> happened again.'. Ondersteunde emoties zijn curious, sarcastic, giggle, gulp, exhale, snort, sing, scream, cry, whisper, excited, angry, gasp, chuckle, sigh, laugh_harder en laugh. |
| `prompt` |  | string | yes |  | ≤ 500 characters | Stem- of karaktereigenschappen om te beschrijven, zoals intensiteit, toon, tempo, timbre, toonhoogte, accent en leeftijd. |
| `temperature` |  | number | no | `0.4` | 0 – 2 | Samplingtemperatuur die audiovariatie bepaalt: een hogere waarde introduceert meer variatie, terwijl het lagere bereik van 0.2–0.5 stabiliteit en consistentie bevordert. |
| `top_p` |  | number | no | `0.9` | 0 – 1 | Instelling voor nucleus sampling die de diversiteit van tokenselectie aanpast. |
| `max_tokens` |  | integer | no | `2000` | 28 – 4,000 | SNAC-tokenbudget dat de audioduur begrenst, berekend als 7 tokens per frame. |
| `repetition_penalty` |  | number | no | `1.1` | 1 – 2 | Straf voor het herhalen van tokens. Een hogere waarde onderdrukt artefacten door herhaling. |
| `sample_rate` |  | enum (string) | no | `48 kHz` | `48 kHz`, `24 kHz` | Keuze van de audiosamplefrequentie: snellere verwerking bij 24 kHz of uitvoer van hogere kwaliteit bij 48 kHz. |
| `output_format` |  | enum (string) | no | `wav` | `wav`, `mp3` | Audio bestandsindeling voor gesynthetiseerde spraak. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Screening kan worden versoepeld door false in te stellen, mits de aanroeper is geautoriseerd. |

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json
{
  "text": "Hello from Doitong. This is a short test sentence.",
  "prompt": "Hello from Doitong. This is a short test sentence."
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "text": "Hello from Doitong. This is a short test sentence.",
  "prompt": "Hello from Doitong. This is a short test sentence."
}
```

## Run it

Set `DOITONG_API_KEY` to a key from https://doitong.com/developers/dashboard#keys. `?wait=20` returns the finished request in the same call when it is ready within 20 seconds; otherwise poll `GET /requests/{id}` (it also accepts `?wait=`), or pass `webhook_url`.

### curl

```bash
# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
curl -X POST "https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/maya?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "text": "Hello from Doitong. This is a short test sentence.",
    "prompt": "Hello from Doitong. This is a short test sentence."
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.com/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1";
const headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + process.env.DOITONG_API_KEY,
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
let res = await fetch(API + "/run/maya?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "text": "Hello from Doitong. This is a short test sentence.",
    "prompt": "Hello from Doitong. This is a short test sentence."
  }),
});
let request = await res.json();
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(request.error.code + ": " + request.error.message);

// Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while (request.status === "queued" || request.status === "running") {
  res = await fetch(API + "/requests/" + request.id + "?wait=20", { headers });
  request = await res.json();
}
if (request.status !== "succeeded") throw new Error(JSON.stringify(request.error));
console.log(request.outputs.map((o) => o.url), request.cost.credits + " API credits ($" + request.cost.usd + ")");
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "text": "Hello from Doitong. This is a short test sentence.",
    "prompt": "Hello from Doitong. This is a short test sentence.",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/maya", params={"wait": 20}, json=payload, headers=headers)
request = r.json()
if not r.ok:
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while request["status"] in ("queued", "running"):
    request = requests.get(API + "/requests/" + request["id"], params={"wait": 20}, headers=headers).json()
if request["status"] != "succeeded":
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"])
print([o["url"] for o in request["outputs"]], request["cost"]["credits"], "API credits", "$" + request["cost"]["usd"])
```

### MCP

The MCP server at `https://api.doitong.com/v1/mcp` exposes the tools `search_models`, `get_model`, `quote`, `run`, `get_request`, `cancel_request`, `list_requests`, `create_upload` and `get_account`. A `run` call for this model:

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "run",
    "arguments": {
      "model_id": "maya",
      "input": {
        "text": "Hello from Doitong. This is a short test sentence.",
        "prompt": "Hello from Doitong. This is a short test sentence."
      },
      "wait_seconds": 20
    }
  }
}
```

## Response

Every call returns a request object. `status` is one of `queued`, `running`, `succeeded`, `failed`, `canceled`. `outputs` lists the generated files with URLs on our storage (kept forever, or 7 days with `?storage=temporary`; `storage` says which); `output` is the model's own result object with the same URLs.
