edge-tts is a Python module and command-line tool that gives you direct access to Microsoft Edge’s online text-to-speech service without needing the Edge browser, Windows, or any API key. It wraps the same cloud voices used by Edge, exposing them through a simple CLI (edge-tts, edge-playback) and a Python API, so you can script high-quality speech generation in your own applications. The tool lets you list available voices, specify locale and voice name, and generate audio files in common formats like MP3 or WAV. ...

WhisperLive is a “nearly live” implementation of OpenAI’s Whisper model focused on real-time transcription. It runs as a server–client system in which the server hosts a Whisper backend and clients stream audio to be transcribed with very low delay. The project supports multiple inference backends, including Faster-Whisper, NVIDIA TensorRT, and OpenVINO, allowing you to target GPUs and different CPU architectures efficiently. It can handle microphone input, pre-recorded audio files, and...

Spark TTS is an open-source, PyTorch-based text-to-speech inference system that leverages large language models to produce highly natural, intelligible speech from text input. It uses an efficient single-stream architecture where speech tokens are directly reconstructed from the predictions of an LLM, removing the need for external acoustic models or complex vocoders and making the generation pipeline cleaner and faster. The project supports zero-shot voice cloning, meaning it can imitate a...

AudioBC is a powerful desktop application designed to turn your digital library into a personal audiobook collection. Unlike most Text-to-Speech (TTS) tools that require expensive cloud API subscriptions or an active internet connection, AudioBC runs entirely on your local machine. Powered by the state-of-the-art Kokoro-82M neural engine, AudioBC produces natural, human-like speech that rivals premium cloud services. It is built with a focus on privacy and simplicity, offering a...
