Route to MiniMax by prefixing the model with minimax/. speech-2.8-hd is the
high-fidelity model; speech-2.8-turbo trades some quality for lower latency and
cost.
Models
| Model | Streaming | Timestamps | Languages | Max input |
|---|---|---|---|---|
speech-2.8-hd | — | Gateway-generated | 23 | 3000 |
speech-2.8-turbo | — | Gateway-generated | 23 | 3000 |
Streaming isn't available: the gateway returns the complete audio once it's
generated. Word timestamps on the
/v1/audio/speech/with-timestamps
endpoint come from the gateway's timestamp fallback. Requests over the 3000
character input limit are chunked and stitched server-side.
