sanoTTS

ampixa

***sano*** (सानो) — Nepali for **"small."** A family of tiny neural text-to-speech voices — **294k to 2.27M parameters** — that run with **no cloud and no NPU**: real-time on a ~$3 ESP32-S3 (out a GPIO into an LM386 and a speaker), or live in the browser via WASM. **Live demo:** tts.ampixa.com/sanoTTS — every voice synthesizes your text live in the browser, no server, no upload. Python needs `sanotts` >= 0.3.0, the browser `sanotts-web` >= 0.3.0. Both fall back to the GitHub releases or the Pages host if Hugging Face cannot be reached, so an outage here cannot break an install. Python packages land in `~/.cache/sanotts/`; set `SANOTTS_VOICE_SOURCE=hf` or `=github` to pin one host. In the browser, passing `voiceBase` yourself turns the fallback off, so a self-hosted deployment never quietly reaches back to our servers.

MODEL HANDBOOK

Understand before you choose

Selection guide & FAQ
How should API prices be compared?+

Separate input, output and cache rates, then estimate the same workload. Image, audio and video rates may use items, duration or resolution rather than tokens.

Do open weights mean free commercial use?+

Not necessarily. Check each version’s license, commercial restrictions and policies. Self-hosting also incurs compute and maintenance costs.

Is the top-ranked model the best for me?+

Rankings depend on tasks, versions and methods. Compare accuracy, latency, reliability and costs on your own workload.
