What it does

Chatterbox Turbo is a 350M parameter open-source TTS model. It features paralinguistic tags (control laughs, sighs, etc.), zero-shot cloning, and runs 6x faster than real-time. Uniquely includes built-in PerTh watermarking for safety.

Chatterbox Turbo is Resemble AI's fastest open-source TTS — 350M params, 75ms latency, 6x real-time, with paralinguistic tags and voice cloning from 5 seconds of audio.

The only open-source TTS with built-in watermarking. Up to 6× faster than real-time on a GPU, with paralinguistic prompting, zero-shot cloning, and MIT license. Outperforms proprietary closed-source models head-to-head. Same prompts, same reference audio — zero-shot, no prompt engineering, no post-processing. Chatterbox Turbo is the first open-source TTS that doesn’t ask you to choose your fighter. It’s fast, expressive, and MIT licensed — with every output authenticated by PerTh watermarking, so you can build voice AI that’s both open and accountable. Streaming-ready inference for voice assistants, interactive media, and low-latency agent loops. Lean…from resemble.ai

    Kitten TTS is an open-source series of tiny and expressive text-to-speech models for on-device applications. We are excited to launch a preview of our smallest model, which is less than 25 MB. This model has 15M parameters. This release supports English text-to-speech applications in eight voices: four male and four female. The model is quantized to int8 + fp16, and it uses onnx for runtime. The model is designed to run literally anywhere eg. raspberry pi, low-end smartphones, wearables, browsers etc. No GPU required! We're releasing this to give early users a sense of the latency and voices…

  • Community, All the HN belong to you. This is an archive of hacker news that fits in your browser. When I made HN Made of Primes I realized I could probably do this offline sqlite/wasm thing with the whole GBs of archive. The whole dataset. So I tried it, and this is it. Have Hacker News on your device. Go to this repo (https://github.com/DOSAYGO-STUDIO/HackerBook): you can download it. Big Query -> ETL -> npx serve docs - that's it. 20 years of HN arguments and beauty, can be yours forever. So they'll never die. Ever. It's the unkillable static archive of HN and it's…
