29 text-to-speech (TTS) models, ranked from the highest benchmark score to the lowest, out of 100.
Data checked on September 30, 2026 · updated after each benchmark capture
29 of the 112 text-to-speech (TTS) models in this benchmark were tested in Chinese by Artificial Analysis (controlled-voice arena) or Speko (multilingual board). A model missing from this page was not tested in Chinese: that does not mean it cannot speak Chinese.
A model is listed here only when an independent benchmark measured its output in Chinese. The ranking below is the overall benchmark score (latency, accuracy, voice quality and price), not a Chinese-only score; the model pages give the measurements and their dates.
