Gemini 3.8 Flash Lite TTS (Google), speech and two-speaker dialogue, served by fal.ai. Generate speech from text with Google’s Gemini 3.8 Flash Lite TTS. Price: $0.03 per 1,000 spoken characters, pro rata: prompt or the sum of turns[].text; styles and speaker aliases are excluded. 30 voices, WAV, single speech or exactly two speakers. Provider limit: 8,192 total input tokens including style instructions. Agentik also refuses more than 1,000,000 spoken Unicode characters before dispatch; this is a local bound, not a conversion of tokens to characters. Waits up to 40 s for the result; if the generation takes longer, the run stays RUNNING and returns a request_id; poll fal/status and fetch fal/result with model "google/gemini-3.8-flash-lite-tts" and that request_id. Billed once, when the result is ready; a generation that fails is refunded.

## Execute and retrieve

Inspect again before execution, explain the price and obtain the required authority. Use MCP run_tool or POST /v1/run with this tool ID, valid input and an idempotency key. Save the returned run ID and follow the actual state. If Agentik answers that the tool is temporarily unavailable, do not retry it blindly; use discovery to propose an alternative.

This tool uses deferred settlement. Follow its returned task/run instructions; preserve the existing reservation until the result is reconciled.

A partial or uncertain result can still have consumed provider resources. Consult [billing](/docs/billing.md), [idempotency](/docs/idempotency.md) and [asynchronous results](/docs/async.md).
