About MeloTTS
MeloTTS by MyShell.ai is a production-oriented multilingual library built on a VITS-based, multi-accent architecture. It is engineered for speed, processing text at near real-time on CPU alone, with optional GPU inference for extra throughput. A distinguishing feature is its accent range in English — American, British, Indian, and Australian — alongside support for Spanish, French, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. With a 5,000-character cap and low latency, it's a dependable choice for production apps that need fast, multilingual, accent-aware speech without heavy hardware.
