Decision brief

🐸TTS is a Python-based deep learning toolkit for developing text-to-speech systems featuring models like Tacotron and Vocoder for training.

Good fit when

  • If you are working on research projects that require advanced models such as Glow-TTS, HifiGAN, or MelGAN for high-quality speech synthesis
  • When you need a tool that supports multiple speaker configurations and can train multi-speaker TTS models effectively

Avoid when

  • If your project strictly requires a lightweight installation without the overhead of extra dependencies included when installing 🐸TTS from source for development purposes
  • In cases where you are restricted to older Python versions less than 3.9, as 🐸TTS is tested on systems with python >= 3.9 but < 3.12

Installation

🐸TTS is tested on Ubuntu 18.04 with python >= 3.9, < 3.12..

If you are only interested in synthesizing speech with the released 🐸TTS models, installing from PyPI is the easiest option.

pip install TTS

If you plan to code or train models, clone 🐸TTS and install it locally.

git clone https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS
pip install -e .[all,dev,notebooks]  # Select the relevant extras

If you are on Ubuntu (Debian), you can also run following commands for installation.

$ make system-deps  # intended to be used on Ubuntu (Debian). Let us know if you have a different OS.
$ make install

If you are on Windows, 👑@GuyPaddock wrote installation instructions here.


Docker Image

You can also try TTS without install with the docker image. Simply run the following command and you will be able to run TTS without installing it.

docker run --rm -it -p 5002:5002 --entrypoint /bin/bash ghcr.io/coqui-ai/tts-cpu
python3 TTS/server/server.py --list_models #To get the list of available models
python3 TTS/server/server.py --model_name tts_models/en/vctk/vits # To start a server

You can then enjoy the TTS server here More details about the docker images (like GPU support) can be found here
