About

Piper is a fast, local neural text-to-speech (TTS) system optimized for devices like the Raspberry Pi 4, designed to deliver high-quality speech synthesis without relying on cloud services. It utilizes neural network models trained with VITS and exported to ONNX Runtime, enabling efficient and natural-sounding speech generation. Piper supports a wide range of languages, including English (US and UK), Spanish (Spain and Mexico), French, German, and many others, with voices available for download. Users can run Piper via the command line or integrate it into Python applications using the piper-tts package. The system allows for real-time audio streaming, JSON input for batch processing, and supports multi-speaker models. Piper relies on espeak-ng for phoneme generation, converting text into phonemes before synthesizing speech. It is employed in various projects such as Home Assistant, Rhasspy 3, NVDA, and others.

About

Qwen3-TTS is an open source series of advanced text-to-speech models developed by the Qwen team at Alibaba Cloud under the Apache-2.0 license, offering stable, expressive, and real-time speech generation with features such as voice cloning, voice design, and fine-grained control of prosody and acoustic attributes. The models support 10 major languages, including Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, German, French, Russian, Portuguese, Spanish, and Italian, and multiple dialectal voice profiles with adaptive control over tone, speaking rate, and emotional expression based on text semantics and instructions. Qwen3-TTS uses efficient tokenization and a dual-track architecture that enables ultra-low-latency streaming synthesis (first audio packet in ~97 ms), making it suitable for interactive and real-time use cases, and includes a range of models with different capabilities (e.g., rapid 3-second voice cloning, custom voice timbres, and instruction-based voice design).
