# Chatterbox · Text to Speech API

> جذباتی ٹیگز، مبالغہ کنٹرول اور اختیاری حوالہ جاتی آڈیو اسٹائل کے ساتھ انگریزی ٹیکسٹ ٹو اسپیچ

زیادہ سے زیادہ 5000 حروف کے ٹیکسٹ کو تقریر میں تبدیل کرتا ہے۔ ٹیکسٹ میں <laugh>، <chuckle>، <sigh> اور <cough> جیسے جذباتی ٹیگز شامل ہو سکتے ہیں۔ اختیاری `audio_url` ایسا حوالہ فراہم کرتا ہے جس کے اسٹائل اور لہجے سے آؤٹ پٹ مطابقت پیدا کرنے کی کوشش کرتا ہے۔ `exaggeration` (0 سے 1)، `temperature`، `cfg` اور `seed` ادائیگی کو کنٹرول کرتے ہیں۔

- Model id: `chatterbox/text-to-speech`
- Made by: Resemble AI
- Category: Text to Speech
- Output: audio
- Price: $0.025 / 1000 characters (cheapest run $0.025 (25 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/chatterbox/text-to-speech`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/chatterbox/text-to-speech`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/ur/developers/models/chatterbox/text-to-speech

## Pricing

Price: **$0.025 / 1000 characters**. Billed per character of `text` (the price is per 1000 characters).

The full example input below costs $0.002 = 2 API credits (50 characters × 25 API credits / 1000 characters).

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/chatterbox/text-to-speech` 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

Send either the canonical name or the native field name (not both). Canonical names are the same across models.

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `text` |  | string | yes |  |  | آواز میں تبدیل کرنے کے لیے متن، جس میں جذباتی کیفیت کے ٹیگز شامل ہو سکتے ہیں: <laugh>, <chuckle>, <sigh>, <cough>, <sniffle>, <groan>, <yawn>, <gasp>۔ متن 5000 حروف سے زیادہ نہیں ہونا چاہیے۔ |
| `audio_url` | `audio` | string (audio URL) \| null | no | `https://storage.googleapis.com/chatterbox-demo-samples/prompts/male_rickmorty.mp3` |  | وہ حوالہ آڈیو جس کے لہجے اور انداز سے ماڈل اپنے گفتاری آؤٹ پٹ کو ہم آہنگ کرنے کی کوشش کرتا ہے۔ اختیاری حوالہ استعمال کرنے کے لیے آڈیو فائل کا URL دیں۔ |
| `exaggeration` |  | number | no | `0.25` | 0 – 1 | گفتار کی مبالغہ آرائی کا کنٹرول: زیادہ سے زیادہ مبالغہ 1.0 کے برابر ہے، جبکہ 0.0 مبالغہ ختم کر دیتا ہے۔ |
| `temperature` |  | number | no | `0.7` | 0.05 – 2 | تخلیق کا درجۂ حرارت؛ اسے بڑھانے سے نتائج زیادہ تخلیقی ہوتے ہیں۔ |
| `cfg` |  | number | no | `0.5` | 0.1 – 1 |  |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | آڈیو تخلیق کا seed؛ 0 بے ترتیب seed منتخب کرتا ہے۔ یکساں نتائج کے لیے ایک مقررہ قدر استعمال کریں اور باقی تمام خصوصیات تبدیل نہ کریں؛ اس سے آڈیو فائل بالکل دوبارہ بن جانی چاہیے۔ |

File parameters (`audio`) take a public `https://` URL, a `data:` URI up to 10 MB, or the `file_url` of an upload from `POST /files`.

## Example input

Required parameters only:

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

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "text": "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/chatterbox/text-to-speech?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "text": "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/chatterbox/text-to-speech?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "text": "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.",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/chatterbox/text-to-speech", 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": "chatterbox/text-to-speech",
      "input": {
        "text": "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.
