What's the difference between the TTS models?

Realtime-0.5B: Fast, runs locally on your device, free tier. Great for quick single-voice TTS and simple podcasts.
TTS-1.5B: Cloud-powered, better quality, handles multi-speaker well. Requires Pro plan.
TTS-Large: Higher quality voices, more natural intonation. Uses more GPU (1.5x tokens). Requires Pro.
TTS-7B: Highest quality, most natural speech, best for professional content. Uses most GPU (2x tokens). Requires Pro.

How does pricing work?

Bring Your Own ($9): 30 min podcast, 60 min transcription, 20 scripts/month (use your own API keys)
Starter ($14.99): 60 min podcast, 120 min transcription, 50 scripts/month
Pro ($29): 300 min podcast, 500 min transcription, 200 scripts/month + cloud TTS models

Note: TTS-Large uses 1.5x tokens, TTS-7B uses 2x tokens. More speakers also increase usage.

Can I use my own API keys?

Yes! Go to Settings (click your profile) and add your own:
• Hugging Face Token - for cloud transcription fallback
• OpenAI API Key - optional for Whisper API transcription
• Ollama API Key - for cloud script generation fallback

The Bring Your Own plan ($9/month) is perfect if you want to use your own keys with higher limits.

Why is my podcast generation slow?

Generation time depends on:
• Model size: TTS-7B is slower but highest quality
• Script length: Longer scripts take more time
• Number of speakers: More speakers = longer processing
• Cloud vs Local: Cloud models may sleep after inactivity (~30s wake time)

Tip: Use Realtime-0.5B for fastest results (runs on your device).
