Voice benchmark evidence

Zonos 2 model evaluation is an owner-defined voice evaluation. Its result stays separate from BenchLM's weighted text-model ranking.

Deployment options

Self-host and provider-specific paths stay separate from benchmark evidence so operating constraints are visible before a score becomes the whole decision.

Published weights are available, but BenchLM does not yet have a sourced parameter and VRAM profile for this exact model. Hardware cost estimates stay unavailable until that sizing record is complete.

Lineage

The sequence follows explicit supersedes links. A successor's displayed score stays at least 0.1 points above its predecessor; raw benchmark rows do not move. Scores and prices remain blank when the corresponding public row or first-party rate is unavailable.

How to read this profile

The visual layer above carries the decisions. These notes preserve the model, ranking, coverage, and family context behind the numbers.

We track Zonos 2, but no weighted text-model benchmark result is published on the site yet. This page shows the metadata and separate protocol evidence we can verify now; a BenchLM score will appear only if compatible public evaluations land.

Zonos 2 is a open weight model with a N/A context window. No explicit reasoning mode is documented in this profile.

Released June 12, 2026 under Apache 2.0 as an 8B-total, 900M-active MoE (Zyphra/ZONOS2, with GGUF builds for the zonos2.cpp runtime) covering 34 languages across three tiers, and hosted free for a promotional period on Zyphra Cloud.

Zonos 2 is a display-only open-weight multilingual text-to-speech model with voice cloning. Voice results remain separate from BenchLM’s weighted text-model ranking.

The profile has no source-displayable benchmark row yet.

Frequently asked questions

How does Zonos 2 perform overall in AI benchmarks?

Zonos 2 does not have any source-displayable benchmark rows yet, so this profile does not assign a public score or rank. Documented specifications remain visible, while score-led charts and claims stay unavailable until a published evaluation can be attached to the exact model.

Is Zonos 2 open source?

Zonos 2 is an open-weight model from Zyphra. Its weights can be downloaded for local or hosted deployment, subject to the published license. Open weight does not automatically mean open source: training data and training code may remain private, and commercial restrictions can still apply.

Does Zonos 2 have full benchmark coverage on BenchLM?

No. Zonos 2 currently has 0 source-displayable rows across 434 tracked benchmark slots. The profile exposes published, non-generated evidence and leaves missing categories blank until an exact evaluation is available. Coverage describes how much was measured; it is not a penalty added to an individual benchmark result.

What is the context window size of Zonos 2?

Zonos 2 has a reported context window of N/A in the exact-model catalog record. The value stays visible, but the profile marks its source link as unavailable instead of presenting it as directly documented. Maximum output length remains separate because providers often publish a different limit.
