## Choose when

### Choose Chatterbox-TTS-Server if…

- License: Chatterbox-TTS-Server is MIT, VieNeu-TTS is Apache-2.0.
- Requirements: Python 3.10 needed for pre-built wheels; avoid Python >=3.11 due to lack of support.; Ensure hardware and driver meets the Hardware Compatibility Matrix requirements..
- Tags unique to Chatterbox-TTS-Server: ai, api-server, audio-generation, chatterbox.
- Chatterbox-TTS-Server ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- You need a self-hosted Text-to-Speech service that supports advanced features like voice cloning.

### Choose VieNeu-TTS if…

- License: VieNeu-TTS is Apache-2.0, Chatterbox-TTS-Server is MIT.
- Tags unique to VieNeu-TTS: deep-learning, on-device-ml, real-time, speech-synthesis.
- You require a text-to-speech solution specifically tailored for the Vietnamese language.

## When NOT to use Chatterbox-TTS-Server

- When only pre-built wheels and no flexibility with Python versions is required (strictly follows Python 3.10).
- If your hardware or OS lacks support detailed in the compatibility matrix, like unsupported GPUs/CPU setups.
- For projects requiring minimal dependencies without manual handling of installation intricacies.

## When NOT to use VieNeu-TTS

- The application demands TTS services in languages other than Vietnamese.
- You seek a solution that performs inference exclusively on GPUs as VieNeu-TTS prioritizes CPU usage even with GPU availability.
- Deployment needs are not compatible with on-device processing, and cloud-based TTS solutions are preferred.
