I love that everyone is making their own TTS model as they are not as expensive as many other models to train. Also there are plenty of different architecture. Another recent example: https://github.com/supertone-inc/supertonic

Thank you. Very good suggestion with code available and bindings for so many languages.

Oh this is sweet, thanks for sharing! I've been a huge fan of Kokoro and event setup my own fully-local voice assistant [1]. Will definitely give Pocket TTS a go! [1] https://github.com/acatovic/ova

Thanks for sharing your repo..looks super cool.. I'm planning to try out. Is it based on mlx or just hf transformers?

Another one is Soprano-1.1.

It seems like it is being trained by one person, and it is surprisingly natural for such a small model.

I remember when TTS always meant the most robotic, barely comprehensible voices.
