What it does
TADA (Text-Acoustic Dual Alignment) is Hume AI's open-source speech-language model that synchronizes text and audio one-to-one. TADA synchronizes text and speech into a single continuous stream via 1:1 token alignment. Generating audio at 5x the speed of conventional LLM-based TTS systems completely eliminates skipped words and content hallucinations across 1000+ tests.
TADA (Text-Acoustic Dual Alignment) is Hume AI's open-source speech-language model that synchronizes text and audio one-to-one.
The future of voice AI hinges on sounding natural, fast, expressive, and free of quirks like hallucinated words or skipped content. Today's LLM-based TTS systems are forced to choose between speed, quality, and reliability because of a fundamental mismatch between how text and audio are represented inside language models. TADA (Text-Acoustic Dual Alignment) resolves that mismatch with a novel tokenization schema that synchronizes text and speech one-to-one. The result: the fastest LLM-based TTS system available, with competitive voice quality, virtually zero content hallucinations, and a footprint light enough for on-device deployment.
