I’ve heard about Bark on HuggingFace, although I haven’t tried it myself. There’s also WellSaid Labs, which I think offers a free tier, but from what I’ve heard, Eleven Labs is considered better.

In my opinion, the top-notch free model right now is Tortoise TTS. The quality is outstanding, although the speed has been improving recently.

Check out NaturalReader for realistic text-to-speech! It’s great for audiobooks, offering many different voices in various languages that still sound natural.

For natural-sounding text-to-speech (TTS) voices, there are several excellent options to consider. Google Text-to-Speech and Amazon Polly are known for their high-quality, lifelike voices that are suitable for various projects. They offer multiple languages and customization options to enhance voice quality and pronunciation. Additionally, services like IBM Watson Text to Speech and Microsoft Azure Text to Speech provide robust TTS capabilities with natural-sounding voices and advanced features like voice modulation and emotion expression. Choosing the best tool depends on your specific project requirements, such as language support, voice customization, and integration capabilities with your existing systems or applications.
