+# Parler-TTS
+
+Parler-TTS is a lightweight text-to-speech (TTS) model that can generate high-quality, natural sounding speech in the style of a given speaker (gender, pitch, speaking style, etc). It is a reproduction of work from the paper [Natural language guidance of high-fidelity text-to-speech with synthetic annotations](https://www.text-description-to-speech.com/) by Dan Lyth and Simon King, from Stability AI and Edinburgh University respectively.
+
+Contrary to other TTS models, Parler-TTS is a fully open-source release. All of the datasets, pre-processing, training code, and weights are released publicly under a permissive license, enabling the community to build on our work and develop their own powerful TTS models.
