Pocket TTS is a lightweight text-to-speech project designed to run efficiently on CPUs, targeting developers who want local speech generation without depending on GPUs or hosted web APIs. It is built to feel practical in everyday applications, where installation and usage should be as simple as adding a dependency and calling a function. The project focuses on keeping the runtime footprint manageable while still producing natural-sounding speech, which makes it attractive for offline tools, prototypes, and privacy-sensitive workflows. Because it is CPU-oriented, it fits well in server environments where GPU access is limited, in desktop apps, or in edge deployments where simplicity matters more than maximum throughput. ...

KittenTTS is an open-source, ultra-lightweight, and high-quality text-to-speech model featuring just 15 million parameters and a binary size under 25 MB. It is designed for real-time CPU-based deployment across diverse platforms. Ultra-lightweight, model size less than 25MB. CPU-optimized, runs without GPU on any device. High-quality voices, several premium voice options available. Fast inference, optimized for real-time speech synthesis.

...It implements a lightweight architecture based on ZipVoice and optimized sampling techniques so that it can generate speech at speeds up to roughly 150 times real-time on a single GPU and faster than real-time on CPU, all while producing audio at high fidelity with 48 kHz quality. The project supports zero-shot voice cloning, meaning it can adapt to a reference speaker’s voice with minimal example data, enabling realistic and personalized synthetic speech. Intended for developers, hobbyists, and creators, the repository includes installation instructions, usage examples, and Python APIs that make it feasible to integrate the model in local workflows, web demos, or production systems. ...

VibeVoice ComfyUI is a comprehensive wrapper that integrates Microsoft’s VibeVoice text-to-speech models directly into ComfyUI workflows. It exposes VibeVoice as a set of custom nodes so you can build single-speaker and multi-speaker voice generation pipelines visually, combining TTS with other audio or generative components. The integration supports high-quality single-speaker synthesis as well as scripted multi-speaker conversations, with optional voice cloning from audio samples for each...

Sopro TTS is an open-source text-to-speech (TTS) project that implements a lightweight model capable of producing speech from text with zero-shot voice cloning, meaning it can mimic a speaker’s voice from only a few seconds of reference audio. Built with a 169 million-parameter architecture that uses dilated convolutions and cross-attention layers instead of large Transformer stacks, it achieves relatively fast real-time performance even on CPUs (about a 0.25 real-time factor measured on an...

Audiblez is a tool for generating high-quality .m4b audiobooks directly from .epub e-books using the Kokoro-82M neural text-to-speech model. It focuses on making audiobook creation easy and fast: from a single command, the tool splits an e-book into chapters, synthesizes audio for each section, and then merges the results into a structured audiobook with chapter-based WAV files and a final .m4b container. The Kokoro-82M model it uses is compact (82M parameters) yet natural sounding, trained...
