> `Simba` names the model family, not the brand. Model ids: `simba-3.2` (English, recommended) and `simba-3.0` (English, German, Spanish, French, Italian and Portuguese; the default). `simba-english` and `simba-multilingual` are retired: a new workspace that sends either gets `400 model_retired`. `SimbaVoice` / `simbavoice.ai` are retired.

# API: list available TTS models with `GET /v1/audio/models`

`GET /v1/audio/models` returns the text-to-speech models you can pass as the `model` parameter, so you can populate a model picker at runtime instead of hardcoding the list.

```json
{
  "models": [
    { "id": "simba-english", "name": "Simba English", "default": true, "recommended": false, "description": "English-only synthesis; the model used when a request omits `model`.", "languages": ["en"] },
    { "id": "simba-multilingual", "name": "Simba Multilingual", "default": false, "recommended": false, "description": "Synthesis across 30+ languages, including mixed-language input.", "languages": ["en", "fr-FR", "de-DE", "es-MX", "…"] },
    { "id": "simba-3.0", "name": "Simba 3.0", "default": false, "recommended": false, "description": "Earlier streaming-native model, English only. Superseded by simba-3.2.", "languages": ["en"] },
    { "id": "simba-3.2", "name": "Simba 3.2", "default": false, "recommended": true, "description": "Streaming-native model with the lowest time-to-first-byte and richest expressivity, English only today.", "languages": ["en"] }
  ]
}
```

Each entry carries the model `id`, a human-readable `name` and `description`, a `default` flag (the model used when a request omits `model`), a `recommended` flag (the model we suggest for new integrations - distinct from the default, which stays stable for backwards compatibility), and the `languages` it can synthesize (BCP-47 locale strings). The catalog is returned in a single response and is not paginated. These values reflect current support and can change over time, so read them at runtime rather than caching them.
