kokoro-onnx is a text-to-speech toolkit that wraps the Kokoro neural TTS model in an easy-to-use ONNX Runtime interface, so you can generate speech from Python with minimal setup. It focuses on running efficiently on commodity hardware, including macOS with Apple Silicon, while still delivering near real-time performance for many use cases. The project ships prebuilt model files and a simple example script, so you can go from installation to producing an audio.wav file in just a few steps....

...Through its architecture, Step-Audio supports multilingual interaction, dialects, emotional tones (joy, sadness, etc.), and even more creative speech styles (like rap or singing), while allowing dynamic control over speech characteristics. It also provides a “generative data engine,” which can produce synthetic speech data (cloning voices, varying style) to support TTS training.

...It is designed around a streaming model: you can feed it text incrementally (for example, as an LLM responds) and get audio output almost immediately, which keeps end-to-end latency very low. The library is engine-agnostic and plugs into a wide range of cloud and local TTS systems, including OpenAI, ElevenLabs, Azure, Coqui, Piper, StyleTTS2, Edge TTS, Google TTS, system TTS and others, so you can swap providers without rewriting your pipeline. It supports both internet-based engines and fully local engines, which lets you choose between privacy, cost, and quality trade-offs. ...
