AI Text to Speech

Kokoro is an 82 million parameter text-to-speech model that punches well above its weight class. Despite its tiny size, it produces remarkably natural and expressive speech. Kokoro supports multiple languages including English, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean with a variety of expressive voices. It runs incredibly fast — generating audio nearly 100x faster than real-time on a GPU.

Piper is a lightweight text-to-speech engine developed by Rhasspy that uses VITS and larynx architectures. It runs entirely on CPU, making it ideal for edge devices, home automation, and applications requiring offline TTS. With over 100 voices across 30+ languages, Piper delivers natural-sounding speech at real-time speeds even on a Raspberry Pi 4.

VITS (Variational Inference with adversarial learning for end-to-end Text-to-Speech) is a parallel end-to-end TTS method that generates more natural sounding audio than current two-stage models. It adopts variational inference augmented with normalizing flows and an adversarial training process, achieving a significant improvement in naturalness.

MeloTTS by MyShell.ai is a multilingual TTS library supporting English (American, British, Indian, Australian), Spanish, French, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. It is extremely fast, processing text at near real-time speed on CPU alone. MeloTTS is designed for production use and supports both CPU and GPU inference.

Bark by Suno is a transformer-based text-to-audio model that can generate highly realistic, multilingual speech as well as other audio like music, background noise, and sound effects. It can produce nonverbal communications like laughing, sighing, and crying. Bark supports over 100 speaker presets and 13+ languages.

Bark Small is a distilled version of the Bark model that trades some audio quality for significantly faster inference speeds and lower memory requirements. It retains Bark's ability to generate speech with emotions, laughter, and multiple languages.

CosyVoice 2 by Alibaba's Tongyi Lab achieves human-comparable speech quality with extremely low latency, making it ideal for real-time applications. It uses a finite scalar quantization approach for streaming synthesis and supports zero-shot voice cloning, cross-lingual synthesis, and fine-grained emotion control. It outperforms many commercial TTS systems in subjective evaluations.

Parler TTS is a text-to-speech model that uses natural language voice descriptions to control the generated speech. Instead of selecting from preset voices, you describe the voice you want (e.g., "a warm female voice with a slight British accent, speaking slowly and clearly") and Parler generates speech matching that description. This makes it uniquely flexible for creative applications.

IndexTTS-2 is an advanced text-to-speech system that excels at zero-shot voice synthesis with fine-grained emotion control. It can generate speech with specific emotional tones like happy, sad, angry, or fearful without requiring emotion-specific training data. The model uses emotion vectors to precisely control the emotional expression of generated speech.

Spark TTS by SparkAudio is a text-to-speech model that combines voice cloning with controllable emotion and speaking style. Using just 5 seconds of reference audio, it can clone a voice and then generate speech with different emotions, speeds, and styles while maintaining the cloned voice identity. Spark TTS uses a prompt-based control system.

GPT-SoVITS combines GPT-style language modeling with SoVITS (Singing Voice Inference via Translation and Synthesis) for powerful few-shot voice cloning. With as little as 5 seconds of reference audio, it can accurately clone a voice and generate new speech while preserving the speaker's unique characteristics. It excels at both speaking and singing voice synthesis.

Orpheus is a large-scale text-to-speech model that achieves human-level emotional expression. Trained on over 100,000 hours of diverse speech data, it excels at generating speech with natural emotions, emphasis, and speaking styles. Orpheus can produce speech that is virtually indistinguishable from human recordings.

Chatterbox by Resemble AI is a cutting-edge zero-shot voice cloning model. It can replicate any voice from a single audio sample with remarkable accuracy, capturing not just the timbre but also the speaking style and emotional nuances. Chatterbox also features fine-grained emotion control, allowing you to adjust the emotional tone of the generated speech independently from the voice identity.

Tortoise TTS is an autoregressive multi-voice text-to-speech system that prioritizes audio quality over speed. It uses DALL-E-inspired architecture to generate highly natural speech with excellent prosody and speaker similarity. While slower than many alternatives, Tortoise produces some of the most realistic synthetic speech available in the open-source ecosystem.

StyleTTS 2 achieves human-level TTS synthesis by combining style diffusion with adversarial training using large speech language models. It generates the most natural sounding speech among single-speaker models, rivaling human recordings. StyleTTS 2 uses diffusion-based style modeling to capture the full range of human speech variation.

OpenVoice by MyShell.ai enables instant voice cloning with granular control over voice style, emotion, accent, rhythm, pauses, and intonation. It can clone a voice from a short audio clip and generate speech in multiple languages while maintaining the speaker identity. OpenVoice also functions as a voice converter, allowing real-time voice transformation.

Qwen3-TTS is a 1.7 billion parameter text-to-speech model from Alibaba's Qwen team. It supports three modes: preset voices with emotion control (9 speakers), voice cloning from just 3 seconds of audio, and a unique voice design mode where you describe the voice you want in natural language. It covers 10 languages with high expressiveness and natural prosody.
