Podonos Flash (Alpha): The World’s First Voice Evaluation API
Introducing Podonos Flash, the first-ever API designed for real-time voice evaluation.While human evaluation offers superior accuracy, it can be resource-intensive. Podonos Flash bridges this gap by instantly assessing naturalness and noise quality with human-like precision, enabling large-scale performance monitoring and optimization.Currently in Alpha Testing. We are refining the system for a full official launch in January 2026.During this Alpha phase, we are offering limited early access to select partners. To request access, please contact us at [email protected].
Workspace Enhancements
We have introduced key administrative and billing improvements to the Workspace:- Admin Role Transfer: Seamlessly transfer administrative privileges within your organization.
- Multi-Payment Method Support: Register and manage multiple payment methods for flexible billing operations.

New: Transcription Services
We have launched High-Accuracy Transcription Services, essential for benchmarking speech-to-text models and generating high-quality training datasets.Our service supports 12 major languages, including English, Spanish, French, Japanese, Korean, and German, ensuring reliable ground truth data for your AI models.
U.S. Address Speech Dataset
Accurate address processing is critical for voice AI systems yet remains a common failure point. To address this, we have curated a Verified U.S. Address Speech Dataset to help benchmark and improve your model’s performance on complex address formats.Contact us to access this high-value dataset.
Secure Report Sharing
Enhance team collaboration with Secure Report Sharing. You can now securely distribute evaluation reports to internal teammates and external partners, ensuring stakeholders have controlled access to performance insights.

Recommended Templates
Streamline your evaluation workflow with Recommended Templates.Available via both SDK and Web, these pre-configured templates allow you to rapidly set up evaluations aligned with standard industry goals, reducing configuration time and ensuring best practices.

Wizard
We’ve introduced a Wizard to streamline evaluation creation and accelerate your workflow.The API-based approach revolutionizes the evaluation process by enabling rapid evaluation creation through just a few clicks, eliminating the need for manual audio file generation and upload procedures. This streamlined method significantly reduces setup time while maintaining the same comprehensive evaluation capabilities.Currently, the API-based evaluation method supports single audio evaluation for naturalness and quality evaluation and double audio evaluation for voice similarity and preferences evaluation. We are actively working to extend API-based support to additional evaluation types and will be rolling out these capabilities in upcoming releases.

Automatic Loudness Normalization
All audio inputs are automatically normalized to -21 LUFS before presentation to human evaluators, ensuring consistent and accurate evaluation results regardless of original audio levels.2025-04
Public Report Setup
You can now customize your report titles and descriptions at any time. When publishing reports publicly, you have full control over audio playability settings, model names, and tags.
2025-03
Data Collection (Beta)
Multi-language voice data collection from diverse global contributors to improve model performance. This service is currently available to selected early customers who are seeing significant improvements in model accuracy and speed.2025-02
Markdown Descriptions
Add comprehensive descriptions for your models and comparisons using markdown formatting, similar to README.md files on GitHub or Hugging Face. This enables rich documentation with formatted text, links, and structured content.
Report Download
Download complete analysis data in JSON format with three different organizational structures to suit your specific needs and workflows.
Voice Cloning Evaluation
Comprehensive voice similarity measurement for voice cloning applications. Our system supports three-way similarity analysis comparing a reference voice with two target outputs, enabling precise evaluation of voice cloning quality.
Model-related questions
In three-way similarity analysis, you can now ask specific questions related to each individual model. Through model-related questions, you can conduct separate evaluations for each model within the triple audio evaluation framework, providing the same level of detailed evaluation as single audio evaluations.This feature enables comprehensive analysis by allowing evaluators to focus on specific aspects of each model’s performance while maintaining the comparative context of the three-way evaluation structure.
Collaborate with team
Enable teamwork by sharing evaluations, feedback, and reports. Foster collaboration and ensure everyone stays aligned on goals and outcomes

Web-based evaluation
You don’t need an SDK to create an evaluation any more.
Evaluation template support
You create the template once, use it multiple times. Once you create your own template, you can re-use them in the following evaluations.New Billing & Payment
We have a new look in the Billing & Payments. You can set up the recurring payments and get additional discounts.High Scalability
You can evaluate up to 10k queries with 10k files in a single session.2024-11
Workspace is revamped
Now, the workspace has a new look and a more organized menu.
Fully customize your own evaluations
So far, you can use the provided evaluation templates. Now, you can add your own messages and followup questions up to 8. Instead of asking a single question, you can ask multiple questions on different types.Add audio examples
Evaluator may wonder what is excellent and what is bad. You can add audio examples, so your evaluation will be more consistent.New format support
We now support FLAC type too in addition to wav and mp3.2024-09
New evaluation report
We revamped the whole report presentation. With the new concept ofmodel_tag, you can group the evaulations into models and multiple tags and analyze more details.
Reasoning behind the rating
One of the core questions behind the report is that “why did the evaluator think so?”.So we added this new feature to ask the evaluators to annotate the words/phrases and put reasons behind the evaluation ratings.
6x faster upload in SDK
We previously made the file upload 2x faster. Again, we have made 6x faster upload, total 12x faster than last month.It can be faster depending on your internet speed.SDK documentation updated
We have revamped the whole SDK documents with more detailed descriptions and examples.Many more stability and bug fixes
We have fixed multiple performance and stability issues. Also fixed many bugs for more accurate evaluations.2024-08
Custom question and detailed description
You can customize the question and the detailed description - So you can ask your own question to the evaluators instead of ours.2x faster file upload
Our backend service has become faster and the SDK uploads your files to evaluate in multiple upload sessions.Add the API key to the environment variable
See this document for details.In addition, we have tons of ideas around evaluation management, reliability, modality, speed improvement, and so on. If you have cool ideas, please feel free to let us know at [email protected].
