free tier

Overview

S2.1 Pro Free is the no-cost variant of Fish Audio S2.1 Pro, intended for testing, prototyping, and low-volume use. Synthesis quality matches the paid tier, but it carries no production latency or availability guarantees — move to fish-audio/s2.1-pro before you ship.

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: 'fish-audio/s2.1-pro-free',
    prompt: 'Your text to speak goes here.',
  }),
});
const { data } = await res.json();
// data.jobId — use this to poll for results

curl -X POST https://api.yepapi.com/v1/media/queue \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model": "fish-audio/s2.1-pro-free", "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 completed

curl 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

Parameter	Type	Required	Description	Default
`model`	`string`	Yes	`fish-audio/s2.1-pro-free`	—
`prompt`	`string`	Yes	The text to speak (max 50,000 bytes)	—
`options.voice`	`string`	No	Voice identifier	provider default
`options.outputFormat`	`string`	No	`mp3` (default) or `pcm`	`mp3`
`options.speed`	`number`	No	Playback speed multiplier. Honoured only by models that support it	`1.0`

Voices

Fish Audio ships no fixed voice catalogue — omit options.voice and the provider selects its default, or steer the delivery through the input text itself.

Features

Same synthesis as the paid S2.1 Pro tier
Free upstream — you pay only the $0.01 minimum job charge
No production latency or availability guarantee
Voice cloning is not routed on this tier

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.
