## When NOT to use openai-edge-tts

- Last GitHub push was 375 days ago (dormant maintenance, Jul 1, 2025). Validate activity before betting a new project on openai-edge-tts.
- 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.
