Overview

Flux TTS is Deepgram's streaming-first text-to-speech model, designed around the way a voice agent actually speaks: in turns, not in one long block of narration. Synthesis is turn-based, and prosody carries across turns, so the agent's intonation and pacing stay continuous over a conversation instead of resetting on every reply.

Twelve English voices are available: Alexis, Bruce, Cole, Drew, Haley, Heather, Jack, Marcus, Priya, Renee, Rufus, and Sharon. Priya is Indian-accented English; the rest cover a range of American English personas. Select one by passing its name as the voice parameter.

The model is English-only, with multilingual coverage planned for a later release, and it carries no expressive, emotion, or style controls — delivery is what the model produces rather than something you dial in. On the CallMissed API it is reachable through the text-to-speech endpoint (POST /v1/audio/speech). It is not selectable for the live voice agent — use one of the other TTS models there. Billed at $0.30 per 10K characters.
