What Neuphonic is
Neuphonic builds voice AI for natural speech and voice interactions through on-device, on-premises, and cloud API deployments. Its API provides real-time text-to-speech, multilingual speech, flexible voices, pronunciation controls, and WAV export. On-device models run on local hardware and can work offline after installation. On-premises deployments run inside an organisation’s servers, private cloud, or secure infrastructure, while the cloud API requires an internet connection. NeuTTS-2E provides English speech with seven emotion modes and four fixed speakers; it does not yet support voice cloning. NeuDecide converts speech into tool calls, and NeuCodec encodes and reconstructs audio. Developers can use an API playground, Hugging Face models, GitHub code, Python and JavaScript SDKs, and integrations for Twilio, LiveKit, Pipecat, and VideoSDK. The service has a free plan, supports commercial use, and targets mobile, desktop, embedded, and wearable hardware.
