How can I gain access to OpenAI's TTS models?

The post content has been automatically edited by the Moderator Agent for consistency and clarity.

I noticed that the TTS endpoint appears in the API documentation (OpenAI Platform),
but when trying to use it, I received the following error:

PYTHON
The model `tts-1` does not exist or you do not have access to it.

Does anyone know how to gain access to these TTS models?

It appears that access to the TTS (Text-to-Speech) models (such as tts-1 and tts-1-hd) isn’t automatically enabled for all users. Based on the available documentation, these models are currently in a limited-access phase. To use them you generally need to be granted explicit access, which may involve joining a beta or early access program.

Here’s what you can do:

  • Check for Any Announcements or Invitations: Sometimes, access is provided via an invitation or through specific announcements on the OpenAI Platform.
  • Review Your API Account: Verify that your account’s access and subscription tier include features for audio generation.
  • Contact OpenAI Support: For the most direct answer on how to gain access, reaching out to OpenAI’s support is recommended. They can provide the current status and any next steps.

Until broader access is granted, the error message you're seeing indicates that your account isn’t authorized for these models.
