| API | The App development workflow starts a local API on port 8000 alongside a web UI on port 3000, and the Python app can mount a FastAPI realtime API. | Respeecher's Marketplace API supports speech-to-speech and text-to-speech workflows, while its Space API is recommended for most TTS use cases, especially realtime low-latency streaming. |
| Text to speech | Text can be synthesized with Edge TTS and then converted through an RVC model. | Text-to-speech converts written text into spoken audio. |
| What it does | Applio is an open-source AI voice-conversion suite for creating covers, training voice models and converting voices in real time. | Respeecher uses proprietary deep learning techniques to produce synthetic speech and clone or swap voices. |

In their own words
Applio
Applio is an open-source AI voice conversion suite for making covers, training custom voice models, and changing voices in real time. It can convert recorded audio with ready-made models, plus pitch tuning, cleanup, upscaling, and batch processing. Live conversion is intended for songs, streams, and calls. Model tools include training, a voice blender, text-to-speech, and an audio analyzer for dataset readiness. Applio supports Linux, macOS, Windows, web, and self-hosted use; Google Colab, Pinokio, and Hugging Face are also listed as ways to run it. Its plan is free, with no accounts or paywalls. The MIT license permits personal, research, and commercial use. The maker says audio and models remain on the device unless shared, and core features do not require an account, telemetry, or cloud dependency. Documentation recommends an Nvidia RTX 20-series GPU or newer for local voice training; most modern computers can handle inference with existing models.
