AI Voice Cloning & Multilingual Speech Synthesis (Open-Source Only / Mozilla TTS or Tacotron)
Title: AI Voice Expert Needed for Custom Multilingual TTS Model Using Open-Source Tools – $500 Budget
Project Overview:
We are developing an AI-powered oracle called the Babalawo, which will provide multilingual spoken responses in a custom voice. We need an AI specialist to clone a specific voice from provided recordings and integrate it into a text-to-speech (TTS) model using only open-source solutions (no proprietary services like ElevenLabs or Microsoft Azure).
Project Requirements:
We are looking for a freelancer who can:
- Clone a specific voice from at least 2+ hours of provided clean speech data.
- Ensure multilingual speech synthesis (English, French, Swahili, Arabic preferred).
- Train or fine-tune a custom AI voice modelusing open-source TTS frameworks such as Coqui AI or Vits models.
- Optimize pronunciation, intonation, and expressiveness for natural, human-like speech.
- Provide an offline, locally deployable model (no reliance on cloud-based services).
Ideal Candidate Should Have:
- Experience with open-source AI voice synthesis tools (Mozilla TTS, Tacotron, or similar).
- Knowledge of voice cloning techniques and TTS model fine-tuning.
- Ability to work with multilingual speech synthesis and phoneme adjustments.
- Experience in deploying TTS models locally without cloud dependencies.
Deliverables:
- A fully trained custom TTS model replicating the provided voice.
- Multilingual speech synthesis in at least 3 languages (English, French, Yoruba).
- A local deployment setup that can run offline and be fully hosted on our server (self-hosted, no API reliance).
- A brief technical guide on how to use, modify, and maintain the model.
Budget & Timeline:
- Budget: €200 (fixed).
- Timeline: 3 weeks from project start.
How to Apply:
- Please send:
- A brief overview of your experience with open-source AI voice cloning and TTS models.
- Examples of past projects (if available).
- Your preferred open-source tools for achieving this project.
- Your approach to ensuring high-quality, expressive, and multilingual speech synthesis.
Looking forward to collaborating with a skilled expert! |
