What it is

A deep-learning toolkit for text-to-speech, with many models and voice cloning. This is the fork kept up by the Idiap research institute.

Good for

Developers who want a flexible TTS toolkit.

The catch

It is a toolkit, not a polished app. Each model has its own license, so check the one you pick. The license of the model weights can differ from the code, so check the model page before commercial use.
