An RTF (Real-Time Factor) of less than 1 means the system processes faster than the audio playback speed, which is the baseline threshold for achieving truly real-time transcription.

UnverifiedThe industry typically uses Time to First Audio Chunk as the core metric for real-time TTS.73% similarUnverifiedOpenAI's TTS-1 model focuses on low latency and is suitable for real-time or batch generation, with natural sound quality but limited expressiveness; TTS-1-HD provides higher sound quality but generates more slowly and costs more.69% similarUnverifiedLocal voice cloning typically requires a mid-to-high-end GPU (such as an RTX 3060 or above) to achieve near-real-time synthesis speeds, while CPU inference significantly increases wait times.69% similarVerifiedTime to First Audio (TTFA) refers to the time elapsed from text input to the output of the first frame of playable audio, and is a core metric for measuring the response speed of streaming TTS systems.68% similarUnverifiedStreaming TTS APIs can transmit audio chunks as soon as they are ready, allowing playback to begin upon arrival of the first bytes, thereby reducing perceived latency.67% similar
