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.", "body_md": "Gemini 3.8 Flash TTS is a text-to-speech model from Google and the successor to Gemini 3.1 Flash TTS Preview.
