ostinato 🎙️

a discord bot that gives a voice to the voiceless. because listening is better than reading, and sounding human is better than sounding like a microwave.

🌟 the gist

ostinato isn't your average tts bot. it's one of the first to bring truly realistic, human-sounding synthesis to discord. it's not perfect—tts is a wild frontier and we're still refining the edges—but it's a hell of a lot closer to a real person than anything else you've tried.

🌍 languages we speak

tts voices (31 languages): arabic, bulgarian, czech, danish, german, greek, english, spanish, estonian, finnish, french, hindi, croatian, hungarian, indonesian, italian, japanese, korean, lithuanian, latvian, dutch, polish, portuguese, romanian, russian, slovak, slovenian, swedish, turkish, ukrainian, and vietnamese.

bot ui (24 locales): the bot's commands and messages are also translated, so you can use /help in your preferred language.

🎮 how to use

it's dead simple. invite the bot, hop into a voice channel, and just send a message in the voice chat. ostinato handles the rest. not sure how to tweak the settings? just run /help and let the bot guide you.

🎭 the vibe

your server isn't like every other server, so why should your bot sound like one? you can tweak the voice, speed, and language to create a persona that actually fits your community. whether you want it professional, chaotic, or just plain weird, it's up to you.

🛠️ under the hood

it's built to handle the heat without melting:

• supertonic tts: high-fidelity synthesis that actually sounds natural. it's like magic, but with actual code.
• persistent settings: remembers your preferences per server, because nobody likes repeating themselves.

✨ features

• multilingual tts: 31 languages with natural-sounding voices — switch on the fly per message or set a server default.
• localized ui: bot commands and help text available in 24 languages.
• customization: change the voice model, speed (zoom zoom), and language to fit your vibe.
• host it yourself: total control over speed, volume, and performance tweaks. just don't try running this on a toaster.

⚠️ the fine print

expect outages for maintenance, bug fixes, or unexpected hiccups. you have been warned. if it breaks, you get to keep the pieces.

note: the engine might produce inaccurate speech due to our default quality setting to balance latency and realism.
