Thanks for tagging me @chicobolo. I'll look through relevant sources and get back to you shortly.
### Answer Yes, the provider you choose when using the Clone Voice API does matter. [(1) ]() When calling the Clone Voice API, you must specify a
voice_provider
parameter. The available options are: -
elevenlabs
-
cartesia
-
minimax
-
fish_audio
-
platform
Each provider has different capabilities and constraints: - **Cartesia and MiniMax**: Only support 1 audio file for cloning - **Inworld**: Supports up to 3 audio files - **ElevenLabs and others**: Support up to 25 audio files If you set
voice_provider
to
platform
, the cloned voice will behave as a platform voice with automatic TTS fallback handling, meaning you won't need to configure TTS fallback separately. [(2) ]() The provider choice affects the quality, characteristics, and behavior of your cloned voice, so select based on your specific requirements and the number of audio samples you have available.

### Answer I don't have specific pricing information for voice cloning in the available sources. However, I can share that Retell AI's general pricing model is pay-as-you-go with a flat fee of $0.07+/minute for AI voice agents. [(1) ]() The platform also provides 60 minutes of complimentary access for new users. For detailed pricing on voice cloning specifically, I recommend checking Retell AI's pricing page or contacting their team directly.
