## Choose when

### Choose GPT-SoVITS if…

- GPT-SoVITS is primarily Python; TNN is C++.
- License: GPT-SoVITS is MIT, TNN is Other.
- Tags unique to GPT-SoVITS: voice-cloning, voice-clone, voice-cloneai, text-to-speech.
- Also covers Speech & Audio.

### Choose TNN if…

- TNN is primarily C++; GPT-SoVITS is Python.
- License: TNN is Other, GPT-SoVITS is MIT.
- Tags unique to TNN: deep-learning, ncnn, face-detection, mnn.
- Also covers Inference & Serving.

## 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 TNN

- Last GitHub push was 429 days ago (dormant maintenance, May 9, 2025). Validate activity before betting a new project on TNN.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.
- Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic.

## Common questions

### What is the difference between GPT-SoVITS and TNN?
