OpenRouter Text-to-Speech: API Tutorial in 5 Minutes

Article image or reusable cover for OpenRouter

OpenRouter offers a text-to-speech service through an API that works consistently regardless of which provider you use — Mistral, xAI, Microsoft, and others.

You send text, select a model and voice, and receive an audio file in return. The guide shows how to authenticate with an API key, make your first request using cURL or Python, verify that the response contains audio and not just error messages, and switch between different voices and providers by changing only a few lines of code.

One API key reaches TTS models from multiple providers using the same request structure.
