Voxtral Mini TTS
29out of 100same as last month
Summary
Voxtral Mini TTS combines text-to-speech with zero-shot voice cloning. A voice sample is enough for the voice prompt, and Mistral says no transcript of that sample is required. The model supports nine languages and produces first audio in about 90 ms during streaming according to the provider. This combination defines the endpoint for voices that need to start quickly from a clone.
Mistral lists the Voxtral Mini TTS weights under CC BY-NC 4.0. The license applies whether the checkpoint runs locally or through the API. API access and local weights are separate access paths, but neither bypasses the non-commercial terms.

- Methodology
- Vendor-reported result. Exact open-weight checkpoint mistralai/Voxtral-4B-TTS-2603. The paper's Table 5 reports the micro-average human preference win rate against ElevenLabs Flash v2.5 in zero-shot voice cloning across Arabic, Dutch, English, French, German, Hindi, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish. The study compares generated audio with reference clips on likeness, naturalness, and expressivity. The paper does not report the aggregate vote denominator or a confidence interval.
- Context
- This is a Mistral-authored, vendor-reported human preference result for zero-shot voice cloning, not an independent MOS or a general TTS preference score. The paper gives study setup details but no total scored pairwise comparisons, vote denominator, or confidence interval, so this record omits a sample count and confidence bounds.

- Methodology
- Vendor-reported result. Exact released checkpoint mistralai/Voxtral-4B-TTS-2603; Table 4 compares the four flagship voices (British female, British male, American male, French female) with competitor voices matched for gender and accent. Voxtral uses another reference clip from the same speaker that conveys the requested emotion; it accepts no emotion tags or text instructions. Gemini 2.5 Flash TTS receives free-form instructions, and ElevenLabs v3 receives emotion tags. Three native speakers of the same dialect annotate each language/model pair; the reported win rate excludes ties.
- Context
- Mistral-authored pairwise human preference result. The study describes 77 prompts and three native-speaker annotators of the same dialect per language/model pair, but not the total scored comparisons, vote denominator, or confidence interval. Table 4 excludes ties. This measures preference under the stated steering setup, not standardized emotion recognition.
