What it does

Cartesia's official MCP server exposes its Sonic voice stack: TTS, speech-to-text, voice cloning, voice changing, and notably audio infill (generate speech between two existing clips) and voice localization into other languages. Strong for ADR-style dialogue patching and localizing a character's voice across language versions.
