Model overview
***sano*** (सानो) — Nepali for **"small."** A family of tiny neural text-to-speech voices — **294k to 2.27M parameters** — that run with **no cloud and no NPU**: real-time on a ~$3 ESP32-S3 (out a GPIO into an LM386 and a speaker), or live in the browser via WASM. **Live demo:** tts.ampixa.com/sanoTTS — every voice synthesizes your text live in the browser, no server, no upload. Python needs `sanotts` >= 0.3.0, the browser `sanotts-web` >= 0.3.0. Both fall back to the GitHub releases or the Pages host if Hugging Face cannot be reached, so an outage here cannot break an install. Python packages land in `~/.cache/sanotts/`; set `SANOTTS_VOICE_SOURCE=hf` or `=github` to pin one host. In the browser, passing `voiceBase` yourself turns the fallback off, so a self-hosted deployment never quietly reaches back to our servers.

Limitations & considerations
Sources are insufficient to establish specific limitations. Verify task performance, latency, data policies, licensing and version lifecycle.
Source prices & cost analysis
Prices vary by channel, region and configuration. Channel quotes are listed independently and are not treated as a single official provider price.

Do open weights permit free commercial use?
Not necessarily. Check the version license, commercial conditions and usage policies. Self-hosting incurs compute and maintenance costs.
Are these real-time billing prices?
These are timestamped source snapshots, not live billing prices. Check the channel for current versions, regions, discounts and billing methods.
