NeuTTS Air

Apache-2.0

On-device-class TTS with instant cloning from ~3 seconds

NeuTTS Air from Neuphonic is built to run in real time on a CPU — a ~0.7B-parameter model on a Qwen backbone that still manages instant voice cloning from around three seconds of reference audio. It's designed for on-device privacy, which also makes it one of the cheapest modern TTS models to serve.
