## Choose when

### Choose GPT-SoVITS if…

- License: GPT-SoVITS is MIT, finetuning-scheduler is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to GPT-SoVITS: python, text-to-speech, tts, vits.
- Also covers Speech & Audio.
- GPT-SoVITS ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.

### Choose finetuning-scheduler if…

- License: finetuning-scheduler is Apache-2.0, GPT-SoVITS is MIT.
- Tags unique to finetuning-scheduler: artificial-intelligence, fine-tuning, finetuning, machine-learning.
- Leaner open-issue backlog (2).

## When NOT to use GPT-SoVITS

- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.

## When NOT to use finetuning-scheduler

- Last GitHub push was 166 days ago (slowing maintenance, Jan 26, 2026). Validate activity before betting a new project on finetuning-scheduler.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.
