Kokoro-ONNX is an open source text-to-speech (TTS) engine based on ONNX Runtime, created by developer thewh1teagle. ONNX Runtime is a cross-platform, high-performance inference engine with support for a variety of hardware gas pedals. As an open source project , Kokoro-ONNX follows the MIT and Apache 2.0 dual license , both to ensure the flexibility of use , but also to ensure the viability of commercial applications .
The tool is designed to highlight the high efficiency, which is mainly reflected in three aspects: firstly, its inference speed is fast, and it can achieve near real-time performance on macOS M1 devices; secondly, the size of the installation package is lightweight, with the standard version of about 300MB, and quantized to be only 80MB; and lastly, it makes full use of the cross-platform advantages of the ONNX Runtime, and it can be well adapted to the environments of different operating systems. Lastly, it fully utilizes the cross-platform advantage of ONNX Runtime, which can be well adapted to different operating systems.
The open-source nature coupled with efficient runtime performance makes Kokoro-ONNX an ideal choice for TTS solutions in research and real-world applications.
