New Model Available: Gemini 3.8 Flash TTS

Google released Gemini 3.8 Flash TTS, a text-to-speech model that succeeds Gemini 3.1 Flash TTS Preview and serves as the creative tier of the 3.8 TTS family for narration, character work, and multi-speaker dialogue. The model is priced at $0.5 per million tokens for one usage tier and $9 per million tokens for another, with live AI Gateway traffic showing 8.19K tokens, 1.01s latency, and 23.4 tokens per second. Google positions voice fidelity, acting nuance, and regional dialect coverage as more important than latency for this tier.
