async Pro v1.0 ranks 55th of 112 in the 2026 text-to-speech (TTS) API benchmark, with a score of 8.1/100.
Neither Coval nor Speko measures async Pro v1.0's latency, so it scores 0 of 60 on real-time speed and does not appear in the real-time ranking.
No accuracy measurement: Coval does not measure its word error rate and Speko does not rate its pronunciation robustness, so accuracy counts 0 of 15.
