Benchmark sources at a glance
Each evaluator measures different capabilities under its own conditions. Test series, composite indices and their components stay separate. The detailed results below retain their scales, configurations and source dates.
No active result from the reviewed external evaluators can currently be attributed to this model. Other source evidence remains available below.
Coverage is not a quality ranking. Overlapping tests and multiple settings do not count as independent experiments. Vendor claims, historical and disputed results are excluded from this overview and remain labelled in the detailed evidence.

Sources and data date
| Type | Evidence and data date |
|---|---|
| Research status | Research date October 24, 2026. 93 source URLs checked. This documents the inspected sources, not an exhaustive inventory of every publication. |
| Unresolved | Supported language count Note The official model card says nine languages; the launch article says 35+ languages and 50+ dialects. Both statements are recorded without choosing one. |
| Not published | Model weights and license Note The public API model card does not state downloadable weights or an open-source license. |
| Unresolved | Language-count discrepancy Note The model card says 9 languages, while the current language specification says 35 languages and 50+ dialects. Both values remain visible; the discrepancy is unexplained. |
| Not found in the inspected sources | Artificial Analysis, SpeechArena and TTS Arena exact-model rows Note No exact voxtral-mini-tts-3-0 row was found on these independently checked TTS boards. Artificial Analysis’ generic “Voxtral 3 TTS” label is not tied to the target API ID. This gap is limited to these sources; other source lanes are checked separately. |
