BreezeBlue just released open weights and inference code for Breeze-TTS-2, a bilingual text-to-speech model built for real-time interaction. It delivers sub-40ms time-to-first-audio on an H100 and lets developers design distinct voices from scratch using natural language prompts or inject vocal cues like sighs and laughs directly into transcripts. The code is Apache 2.0, while model weights remain research-only.
Alibaba just released Qwen3-TTS, an open-source speech model that clones any voice from just seconds of audio and lets you design new vocal styles using text prompts. Packing a dual-track architecture with 97ms end-to-end latency, it can fluidly generate cross-lingual speech and regional dialects for live streaming and AI agents.
Alibaba just launched its Qwen3-TTS lineup, introducing VoiceDesign and VoiceClone. VoiceDesign lets users generate custom voices and emotions directly from natural language prompts, while VoiceClone can replicate any voice from just 3 seconds of audio across 10 languages, beating ElevenLabs in word error rate by 15%.
