CosyVoice - Multilingual TTS and Voice Cloning on Cabina.AI
Clone a voice, zero training required
Capabilities
What the CosyVoice TTS model can do
At its core, CosyVoice is a multilingual TTS model that reproduces a speakers voice from a short reference sample and then speaks new text in that voice, across languages the original speaker may never have used. The cosyvoice voice cloning pipeline works zero-shot: give it one clip, and it can render that same voice in 9 languages and more than 18 Chinese dialects, without any per-speaker fine-tuning.
Real-time streaming
For real-time voice agents and conversational AI, CosyVoice streams the first audio chunk in about 150ms, fast enough that a spoken response starts before the sentence has finished generating on the backend.
Phoneme-level pronunciation
Pronunciation is controllable at the phoneme level, using Pinyin or CMU notation, which matters for technical and domain-specific vocabulary where a generic TTS engine tends to guess wrong.
Instruction-based control
Instruction-based controls let you adjust emotion, speed, volume, and dialect directly through the prompt, useful for audiobook and long-form narration that needs to shift tone across a chapter rather than read everything in one flat register.
Typical uses
Taking one recorded voice and localizing it into multiple languages for the same piece of content, powering voice agents that need to respond in under a second, narrating long-form audio with emotional variation, and handling text with domain-specific pronunciation that general TTS models mishandle.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use CosyVoice for free?
Yes, up to a point. The Free plan gives 50 tokens forever, enough to test cloning and multilingual generation before deciding on a paid tier. Because each CosyVoice (Zero Shot) generation costs 0.09 tokens, that free allocation supports a handful of generations without any payment.
Is CosyVoice open source?
Yes, CosyVoice is released under the Apache-2.0 license by the FunAudioLLM team at Alibaba Tongyi SpeechTeam. The code and model weights are public on GitHub, which is also why it can run on platforms like Cabina.AI without a separate licensing negotiation.
Does CosyVoice support commercial use?
The Apache-2.0 license permits commercial use, including hosting it as part of a paid product. That is how Cabina.AI offers it: commercial use is already covered by the license, so there is no extra commercial tier or contract required.
How does CosyVoice pricing compare to self-hosting it from GitHub?
Self-hosting means provisioning a GPU, installing CUDA, and managing concurrency scaling yourself, on top of whatever compute costs you incur. Running CosyVoice through Cabina.AI trades that setup for a per-generation token cost, with the underlying infrastructure managed for you.
Are there rate limits or latency issues with CosyVoice in streaming mode?
Self-hosted CosyVoice deployments can see latency and throughput vary under heavy concurrent load, since a single GPU has a limit to how many streaming requests it can serve smoothly at once. On Cabina.AI, that scaling is handled on the infrastructure side rather than left to you to size and monitor.
Do I pay for unanswered requests?
No, you are not charged for requests that do not receive a response.
How do I Cancel a Subscription?
You can cancel your subscription at any time. Your current subscription will remain active until the end of the paid period without any restrictions.
