Emotive voice AI startup Hume launches new EVI 3 model with rapid custom voice creation
While EVI 3’s specific API pricing has not been announced yet (marked as TBA), the pattern suggests it will be usage-based.
Designed for businesses, developers, and creators, EVI 3 expands on Hume’s previous voice models by offering more sophisticated customization, faster responses, and enhanced emotional understanding. This means it can produce anything from a warm, empathetic guide to a quirky, mischievous narrator—down to requests like “a squeaky mouse whispering urgently in a French accent about its scheme to steal cheese from the kitchen.” Unlike traditional chatbots or voice assistants that rely heavily on scripted or text-based interactions, EVI 3 adapts to how people naturally speak — picking up on pitch, prosody, pauses, and vocal bursts to create more engaging, humanlike conversations.
