Our new models speak over 11 languages, including English, Japanese 🇯🇵, Korean 🇰🇷, Spanish 🇪🇸, French 🇫🇷, Portuguese 🇵🇹, Italian 🇮🇹, German 🇩🇪, Russian 🇷🇺, Hindi 🇮🇳, and Arabic 🇦🇪. They’re faster (<200ms), more efficient, and more accurate. We are also rolling out a conversationally tuned model, EVI 4 mini, that is powered by the intelligence of any frontier model like Claude 4.5 Sonnet or GPT-5. Try our live translation demo & EVI 4 mini chat, built on a few voice samples and a prompt:

We'll be releasing more evaluations, more languages, and access to voice conversion and phoneme editing soon. In the meantime, we’re excited to see what you create! Read more about product & research in our blog ↓
