Use case
Developers need to generate speech for specific characters without large amounts of recording data.
Using commercial TTS services or cloning tools that require large samples.
Traditional TTS requires extensive recordings and training, which is costly and time-consuming; zero-shot cloning can quickly generate personalized speech.
