# GPT-SoVITS

> WebUI for zero-shot TTS from a 5-second sample or fine-tuning on 1 minute of audio, with cross-lingual output in English, Japanese, Korean, Cantonese and Chinese. Bundles dataset tools (vocal separation, slicing, ASR for labelling). MIT code and MIT pretrained weights on Hugging Face. Runs on NVIDIA, AMD (ROCm on Linux), Apple silicon and CPU; stated RTF 0.028 on an RTX 4060 Ti and 0.526 on an M4 CPU. Windows has a download-and-double-click package.

## What it replaces
- ElevenLabs: Speech generation, Voice cloning (partial). Strong cloning and TTS, but only five languages (EN, JA, KO, Cantonese, ZH) versus a broad multilingual catalogue.
- Descript: Voice cloning, Speech generation (partial). Voice cloning and text-to-speech only; no transcript-based audio or video editing.
