About

Kugel 3.5 beats four leading TTS models on 8 of 9 tests. It gets short words wrong at half the rate of the next-best model, reads long numbers exactly right 97.1% of the time and supports IPA. 5.25 cents a minute. Not on Kugel? Three lines to production.

Editorial read

Scored deterministically. Only candidates that fire a story trigger are sent to a model, so this one has no written angle.

InvestigateRanks high on little evidence. Worth a look, but verify before committing.

A source that found nothing is a measurement. A source that has not run is a gap. Neither means the launch lacks the thing.
