About kokoro-tts-addon
pinguy/kokoro-tts-addon
Local neural TTS for Browsers: fast, expressive, and offline—runs on modest hardware.
Implements a Flask-based local server paired with the 82M-parameter Kokoro model, enabling multi-voice synthesis with support for nine languages and accents through a Firefox extension popup. The architecture separates the inference backend from the browser frontend via HTTP, supporting both CPU and GPU acceleration while maintaining real-time performance even on legacy hardware like 2013 Xeons.
