Coqui TTS: first release of the open-source library born from Mozilla TTS
In one sentence Coqui, a startup founded by former members of Mozilla's speech team, publishes Coqui TTS v0.0.9, the first release of the open-source Python text-to-speech library, with pretrained models for English, Spanish and French.
Coqui TTS is an open-source Python library for turning text into synthetic speech. It grows out of the work on Mozilla's speech projects and is carried forward by Coqui, a startup founded in 2021 by people from that team.
The first release, v0.0.9, ships on March 9, 2021. It includes pretrained models for English, Spanish and French, plus some "vocoders" (the part that turns the intermediate representation into audio).
The project describes itself as still evolving: future versions may change significantly and break backward compatibility. The license is MPL-2.0.
