## When NOT to use chatterbox-tts-api

- Last GitHub push was 204 days ago (slowing maintenance, Dec 23, 2025). Validate activity before betting a new project on chatterbox-tts-api.
- Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic.
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
