-:frog: TTS is a library for advanced Text-to-Speech generation. It's built on the latest research, was designed to achieve the best trade-off among ease-of-training, speed and quality.
-:frog: TTS comes with [pretrained models](https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS/wiki/Released-Models), tools for measuring dataset quality and already used in **20+ languages** for products and research projects.
