Usage
All media models use the async job queue. Submit a job, then poll for the result.
Step 1: Submit Job
const res = await fetch('https://api.yepapi.com/v1/media/queue', {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'x-api-key': 'YOUR_API_KEY',
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
},
body: JSON.stringify({
model: 'elevenlabs/eleven-v4-turbo',
prompt: 'Your text to speak goes here.',
options: { voice: 'sarah' },
}),
});
const { data } = await res.json();
// data.jobId — use this to poll for resultscurl -X POST https://api.yepapi.com/v1/media/queue \
-H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"model": "elevenlabs/eleven-v4-turbo", "prompt": "Your text to speak goes here."}'Step 2: Poll for Result
const status = await fetch(`https://api.yepapi.com/v1/media/status/${data.jobId}`, {
headers: { 'x-api-key': 'YOUR_API_KEY' },
});
const { data: job } = await status.json();
// job.status — "pending" | "processing" | "completed" | "failed"
// job.result.audio — { mimeType, base64 } when completedcurl https://api.yepapi.com/v1/media/status/JOB_ID \
-H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"Write the audio to a file:
import { writeFileSync } from 'node:fs';
writeFileSync('speech.mp3', Buffer.from(job.result.audio.base64, 'base64'));Request Body

Billing
Speech is billed on the length of the input text, in UTF-8 bytes — for English text one byte is one character. The cost is known before synthesis starts, so the balance check at submit time quotes the exact final charge. Jobs have a $0.01 minimum.
