Raon-OpenTTS is an open-data, open-weight zero-shot TTS system that performs on par with state-of-the-art closed-data models. This is the 1B variant.
Zero-shot voice cloning samples from Raon-OpenTTS-1B across challenging conditions. Each row shows the generated audio, the input text, and the reference (prompt) audio.
Bold marks the best result and the Raon-OpenTTS rows. All numbers are from the
technical report.
WER measured via Whisper-large-v3; SIM via WavLM-large.
WER on CV3-EN and CV3-Hard-EN; SIM via ERes2Net, DNSMOS for perceptual quality (CV3-Hard-EN).
4 acoustic regimes (Clean, Noisy, Wild, Expressive), 12 datasets, 6K prompt-text pairs. Overall is computed over all evaluation samples.

Raon-OpenTTS-1B was trained for 520K update steps on 48 NVIDIA B200 GPUs using the Raon-OpenTTS-Core dataset (510.1K hours of English speech). The model uses AdamW optimization with a peak learning rate of 1e-4, 50K warmup steps, and linear decay. Gradient norm is clipped at 1.0. Waveform synthesis uses a HiFi-GAN vocoder pretrained on LibriTTS at 16kHz.
