Soprano is an ultra-lightweight 80M-parameter text-to-speech model and Python library for fast, expressive, high-fidelity speech synthesis on CPU, CUDA, and MPS devices. It ships with a WebUI, CLI, OpenAI-compatible endpoint, ONNX export, and ComfyUI integration for both interactive and production inference.

Use cases

  • convert text to realistic speech audio on-device
  • stream tts audio with low latency
  • run fast text-to-speech on cpu without a gpu
  • self-host an openai-compatible tts endpoint
  • generate long-form narration with unlimited length
  • fine-tune a custom voice model
  • integrate tts into comfyui workflows

When to choose

  • you need fast, low-latency tts on cpu or edge hardware
  • you want a small model under 1 GB memory footprint
  • you need streaming speech generation with sub-250ms latency
  • you want multiple inference interfaces (cli, webui, api, onnx)

When to avoid

  • you need the absolute highest fidelity from large state-of-the-art tts models
  • you require many built-in languages or voices beyond what the model supports
  • you need voice cloning out of the box without training your own model
