    You say SOTA but I don't see any benchmarks/leaderboards that back this up except in voice cloning, which I don't particularly care about. Consider getting it added to https://huggingface.co/spaces/TTS-AGI/TTS-Arena-V2 and https://artificialanalysis.ai/text-to-speech/arena.

      We'll put the models there as soon as we can, yes.

    Looks nice, I'll try it out, I'm trying to slowly relaunch an iOS app with TTS features and wanted to use 11Labs but its pricing basically kills all consumer business models.

    I've used Inworld for AI characters in the past. Are you pivoting to a TTS company?

    Also, can these voices be plugged into the Unreal/Unity SDKs?

    • rogilop7 months ago
      Not really, we aren't pivoting: TTS is a part of our strategy of making great AI solutions accessible for as many developers as possible. We don't have official plugins for UE/Unity yet, but will have something to share soon. So at the moment feel free to use directly via API.

    Kudos on the launch! The price-point along with superior quality compared to peer models would make it a go-to solution for TTS!

    Played around with it a bit, quite impressive! Genuinely excited for the open-source release.

    TTS Playground is easy to use and impressive. Clone voice was intuitive.

    This is amazing! It unblocks many potential AI applications with voices.
