Mandarin voices for customers who speak Chinese

Hotels, stores, and marketplaces serve Chinese-speaking customers every day, in person and online. 2 of the catalog's voices are cast for Mandarin, on the same account, rate, and key as the English and Thai voices.

A business that serves Chinese-speaking customers writes for them constantly. The welcome message at check-in, the product page voiced for a short video, the notice on the shop floor, the reply from an assistant at midnight. All of it is in Chinese. Most of it is recorded by whoever on the team speaks some Mandarin, or not recorded at all.

Tao Huay and Oolong are Paxa TTS Flash v2 voices cast for Mandarin (普通话), and like every voice on that model they read English and Thai as well. Same account, same key, same per-character rate, and the same request with a different voice id. A changed script becomes new audio with no recording session.

2 voices, one line#

Each is cast for different work, and each reads the same sentence below. The only thing that changes between rows is the voice.

Where the Mandarin voice goes#

A business usually needs a Mandarin voice in four places.

Hotels, spas, and the arrivals hall
The welcome at check-in, the in-room guide, the announcement in the lobby, the safety line on the shuttle. A voice a Chinese-speaking guest can follow, generated from a script the front desk edits, with no recording session to book.
Cross-border commerce and livestream
Product copy voiced for the short video and the livestream intro, in Mandarin, from the same listing text the storefront already has. A price change is a new request, and the video keeps pace with the catalog.
Brand and product video for the Chinese market
A narrated brand film or product walkthrough for a Chinese-speaking audience, read by a voice cast for narration. Cast from the catalog first, and book an artist only if none of them is the one.
Learning content and companion apps
Language lessons explained in Mandarin, a tour guide app, or a companion that answers in Chinese. Text a prompt already writes becomes speech in the same request every other language uses.

One account for every language#

A business serving customers in English, Thai, and Chinese runs one pipeline for all three. The request, the key, and the billing stay the same, and only the voice id changes.

Every Paxa TTS Flash v2 voice reads Mandarin, English, and Thai. A Chinese phrase inside an English or Thai sentence goes through in the same request. These 2 were cast for text that is Chinese throughout.

Questions#

Which Chinese does it read?

Mandarin, from Simplified script (简体中文). Send text as it is written in mainland usage. Traditional script is not verified; convert it to Simplified before sending.

Are these a different model from the English and Thai voices?

They run on Paxa TTS Flash v2, as every voice that speaks Thai, English, and Mandarin does, and Paxa TTS Flash serves the voices v2 does not carry. A voice is an id you send with the request, and every voice is available on any account.

Do the Mandarin voices cost more?

No. Speech bills per character at one rate regardless of voice or language, and the free credits a new account starts with cover Mandarin text like any other.

Can the Mandarin voices read English or Thai?

Yes. They are Paxa TTS Flash v2 voices, and every voice on that model reads English, Thai, and Mandarin.

Can one request mix Mandarin with English or Thai?

Yes. A Chinese name inside an English sentence goes through in one request, and so does a Thai place name inside a Chinese one. Listen to your own copy in the playground before publishing a mixed line.

Tao Huay or Oolong?

Tao Huay is the tender, close read: drama, audio novels, and companion speech. Oolong is the low, even narrator: brand films, product video, and late-night storytelling. Play both on your own line above before deciding.

Can we use the audio commercially?

Output made on free credits is for personal use and evaluation. Once you buy a plan or credits, generated output becomes yours for any use, including commercial publication, and that covers output generated before the purchase.

Free credits, and no card Sign in and the free grant covers a welcome message, a product intro, and the versions of both you throw away first.
