# VieNeu-TTS v3 Turbo > VieNeu-TTS v3 Turbo is an individual developer's open-weight Vietnamese and English text-to-speech model at 48 kHz, about 131M parameters trained from scratch on a Qwen3-style backbone, with three-region preset voices, voice cloning and an OpenAI-compatible server in its vieneu SDK. - Canonical: https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/vieneu-tts-v3-turbo - Pricing: https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/vieneu-tts-v3-turbo#pricing - Reviews: https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/vieneu-tts-v3-turbo#reviews - Markdown: https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/vieneu-tts-v3-turbo.md (~8,150 tokens) - Slim: https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/vieneu-tts-v3-turbo.min.md (~2,430 tokens, same facts, less prose, for token-sensitive contexts) - JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/vieneu-tts-v3-turbo.json (this page as data, same URL with Accept: application/json) - Site index for agents: https://www.anchorterminal.com/llms.txt (full text: https://www.anchorterminal.com/llms-full.txt) - API: https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/index.json - MCP: https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (the whole catalogue as tools, no key) - Licence: CC BY 4.0, credit Anchor Terminal and link this page (https://www.anchorterminal.com/terms/#data) - Updated: 2026-10-21 ## Overview **Grade C · 58.5/100 · rank #66 of 100 open-weight models · #10 in Text-to-speech · not agent-ready · confidence low** Also listed in [Voice cloning & custom voices](https://www.anchorterminal.com/categories/voice-cloning.md). Trained by VieNeu (pnnbao-ump), in the VieNeu-TTS v3 family, with [VieNeu-TTS-v3-Nano](https://huggingface.co/pnnbao-ump/VieNeu-TTS-v3-Nano). Every model from this lab and its older versions: https://www.anchorterminal.com/open-weights/#vieneu. ## Assessment A tiny, fast speech cousin for Vietnamese and English, with regional preset voices, cloning from a short clip and an OpenAI-compatible streaming endpoint, under Apache 2.0. It runs on any CPU through ONNX Runtime, but only through the publisher's own SDK. The main risk is one maintainer who replaces weights in place without notes, so pin the SDK version. ## Facts | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Vendor | pnnbao-ump (VieNeu, Phạm Nguyễn Ngọc Bảo) (https://github.com/pnnbao97/VieNeu-TTS) | | Kind | Open-weight model | | Category | Text-to-speech (https://www.anchorterminal.com/categories/text-to-speech) | | Auth | None · The weights download from Hugging Face with no account, token or terms to accept.

Confidence: low. Performance and Task success pending (no score, not in the total); the total is Σ(score × weight) ÷ 80 over the 7 assessed categories. "This run" is each category's share of the 100 points. | Category | Weight | This run | Score (0–100) | Points | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Capability | 35% | pending | pending | n/a | | Reach | 25% | 38.5 | 65 | 25.0 | | Risk | 20% | 30.8 | 50 | 15.4 | | Agent interface | 10% | 15.4 | 60 | 9.2 | | Documentation and upkeep | 10% | 15.4 | 58 | 8.9 | | Negative events | up to −15 | up to −15 | none recorded | 0 | | **Total** | | | | **58.5 → C** | ### Why each score - Capability: Pending for this listing. Nobody independent has published results for it in at least two areas yet, so its weight is shared across the other four and the total is capped at 61 until they do or our own runs start. - Reach 65 (checked 2026-10-21): Memory earns the full 30, since every build is under 0.5 GB and the INT8 set with the codec needs about 0.3 GB. Runtimes score 0, because only the publisher's vieneu SDK and audio.cpp run it, not any released version of the six named runtimes. Builds get 10 for the publisher's own 8-bit GGUF and ONNX builds, one precision. Apache 2.0 with commercial use spelled out gives terms the full 15, the ungated files give download the full 10, and hosted too scores 0 with no provider found. - Risk 50 (checked 2026-10-21): File safety gets 15, safe file formats but run through the publisher's SDK, which builds prompts in code and loads the codec with remote code on GPU. Provenance gets 15 for files in the publisher's own account, linked both ways from GitHub, with hashes for every file. Apache 2.0 carries no licence deductions (15). Agent guidance gets 5 for the card's cloning warning. Safety evaluation and a security programme score 0. - Agent interface 60 (checked 2026-10-21): Read for a speech model, the tool-calling, trained tool calling and structured-output lines stand for what it takes and returns. The card documents voices, cloning, batching, streaming and an OpenAI-compatible speech endpoint (25), and how to ask for pcm or wav, chunked or as events (15). One voice per utterance gives the one-at-a-time band (10). The chat template scores 10, with the prompt built in the SDK. Reasoning control and context score 0, with nothing to control and 1,024 positions. - Documentation and upkeep 58 (checked 2026-10-21): The card covers intended use, limitations and languages, and misses the architecture's details, parameters, context length and a cut-off (8). Training data is a gated dataset of about 10,000 hours with an undisclosed pipeline (5). The files changed on 23 September and the code on 19 October 2026 (20). The publisher answered both questions on Hugging Face (20). The weights were replaced in place many times without notes (0), and the card lags the files and SDK (5). Fix list for a coding agent, everything this grade says the listing lacks, the biggest gain first (18 items): https://www.anchorterminal.com/fixes/vieneu-tts-v3-turbo.md (JSON https://www.anchorterminal.com/fixes/vieneu-tts-v3-turbo.json) ### What we couldn't check - Unchecked, GitHub issues on pnnbao97/VieNeu-TTS, since the GitHub API isn't enabled for this session; responsiveness rests on two Hugging Face discussions, a small sample - Builds scored 10, reading the GGUF Q8_0 and ONNX INT8 as one precision; a reader who counts GGUF as its own kind, as the line's examples do, would give 15 - Unchecked, the terms of the gated training dataset; the card says the preset-voice speakers consented, and the dataset's licence wasn't read - File safety takes 10 off for prompts built in the SDK and the codec's remote code on GPU; the CPU ONNX path runs no remote code - The 30-day download count is high for a model with 82 likes; the SDK fetches from this repository, but nothing here checks how the count is made up ### Sources - model card: (seen 2026-10-21) - gating, downloads, parameter count, card data, inference provider mapping (empty): (seen 2026-10-21) - files, sizes and hashes: (seen 2026-10-21) - 65 commits; card revisions read for the licence: (seen 2026-10-21) - discussions, counted by author and date, titles only: (seen 2026-10-21) - config, 1,024 positions: (seen 2026-10-21) - publisher repository and vieneu SDK source (git clone), tags to v3.8.3, last commit 19 October 2026: (seen 2026-10-21) - which subfolders the SDK loads: (seen 2026-10-21) - codec loaded with trust_remote_code: (seen 2026-10-21) - streaming server, formats and RTX 3060 measurements: (seen 2026-10-21) - codec, Apache 2.0, ungated, custom code: (seen 2026-10-21) - phonemizer, Apache 2.0: (seen 2026-10-21) - Transformers model types, no vieneu: (seen 2026-10-21) - llama.cpp architectures, no VieNeu: (seen 2026-10-21) - vLLM registry, no VieNeu: (seen 2026-10-21) - Ollama library, no entry (404): (seen 2026-10-21) ## Score history Every move of a score since the listing was graded, newest first, with its cause. A score can't move without an entry here. JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/tools/vieneu-tts-v3-turbo/history.json - 2026-10-21: graded 58.5 C (methodology 0.6) ## Who's behind it (provenance 53/100, checked 2026-10-21) | Check | Finding | Points | | --- | --- | --- | | Legal entity named | Phạm Nguyễn Ngọc Bảo, an individual (named on the card as author; Hugging Face account pnnbao-ump, GitHub account pnnbao97). No company found | 20/20 | | Domain age | , no registry record we could read | 0/15 | | Endpoint on the vendor's domain | no hosted endpoint | n/a | | Terms of service | nothing hosted, so the Apache-2.0 licence stands in | 10/10 | | Privacy policy | nothing hosted, not scored | n/a | | Status page | not found | 0/10 | | Changelog | published | 10/10 | | security.txt | not found | 0/10 | The card links github.com/pnnbao97/VieNeu-TTS, and that README links back to huggingface.co/pnnbao-ump/VieNeu-TTS-v3-Turbo, so the two accounts are the same publisher's. Nothing is hosted, so the Apache 2.0 licence stands in for terms of service and no privacy policy is scored. There is no domain of the publisher's own. The Hugging Face history is 65 commits from 5 June to 23 September 2026. Many replace model.safetensors or the ONNX graphs with commit titles that don't say what changed, and on 5 September the weights were reverted and then restored. The GitHub repository is tagged up to v3.8.3 (23 September 2026) and last changed on 19 October 2026. The GitHub repository has no SECURITY.md (its .github holds funding and CI workflows), and there is no site for a security.txt. ### Terms and privacy, as read A reading by a fixed set of rules, each answered with the vendor's own sentence. Not legal advice. **Terms of service**. Nothing is hosted by the vendor, so there are no terms of service to read. The Apache-2.0 licence stands in and the check scores in full. **Privacy policy**. Nothing is hosted by the vendor, so there is no privacy policy to read and the check isn't scored. ## Probe metrics Not measured yet. Our benchmark probes haven't run, so there's no availability, latency or error rate from a run and Performance is pending. Live uptime, where we poll the endpoint, is under Live and doesn't change the score. ## Strengths - Under 0.5 GB of files, real time on a CPU through ONNX Runtime, about 1 GB of VRAM on GPU - OpenAI-compatible POST /v1/audio/speech with pcm or wav, chunked or server-sent events - Regional Vietnamese preset voices, English code-switching and cloning from a 3 to 8 second clip - Apache 2.0 with a licensing FAQ allowing commercial use of the voices and output - Actively maintained, with the publisher answering on Hugging Face and code changed on 19 October 2026 ## Weaknesses - Only Vietnamese and English - Runs only through the publisher's SDK; no released mainstream runtime, and the GGUF files are for audio.cpp - Weights replaced in place many times without notes, and the card lags the SDK's voice list - One individual maintainer, with no security contact or safety results - Training data is a gated set with an undisclosed pipeline ## Before you call it (notes for agents) 1. On CPU, `pip install vieneu`, then `from vieneu import Vieneu; tts = Vieneu(); tts.save(tts.infer(text, voice='Mai Anh'), 'out.wav')`; `Vieneu(precision='int8')` is about twice as fast on a CPU with VNNI 2. On GPU, install torch 2.8 for CUDA 12.8 and transformers 4.57.6 before vieneu; it switches to PyTorch with batching and stream scheduling 3. Serve with `uv run python -m apps.openai_speech` from a clone of pnnbao97/VieNeu-TTS, then POST to http://localhost:8000/v1/audio/speech with model vieneu-v3-turbo, voice and response_format pcm or wav 4. Call `list_preset_voices()` for the voice names of your installed version; pin the SDK version if the roster matters 5. Clone with `ref_audio='voice.wav', denoise=True`, or enrol once with `add_voice(name, path)` and reuse the name 6. Keep temperature near 0.8; the style argument is ignored on v3 Turbo 7. Only clone a voice you have the right to use ## Get started Install: ```bash pip install vieneu # CPU, torch-free ONNX path; for CUDA install torch 2.8 and transformers 4.57.6 first python -c "from vieneu import Vieneu; tts = Vieneu(); tts.save(tts.infer('Xin chào, đây là VieNeu-TTS.', voice='Mai Anh'), 'out.wav')" ``` First request: ```bash # after: git clone https://github.com/pnnbao97/VieNeu-TTS && cd VieNeu-TTS && uv sync && uv run python -m apps.openai_speech curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/v1/audio/speech \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"model": "vieneu-v3-turbo", "voice": "Mai Anh", "input": "Xin chào!", "response_format": "wav"}' \ --output speech.wav ``` ## Similar tools Ranked by shared capabilities, then score.

The arbiter: https://www.anchorterminal.com/reviewers/arbiter.md - Ruled: 2026-10-21 · standings: 4 upheld, 0 corrected, 0 rejected · signed with the arbiter's key `ed25519:JKHJwDZp664mtug_iSIaLmUiZfZaNvH1Js0ac1IEZq0` (JSON `arbiter.document`) All four reviews hold up against the dossier, with ratings from 2 to 5. They agree the model runs only through the publisher's vieneu SDK, which loads the codec with remote code on GPU, and that the card lags the SDK's 25 voices. Read it as a tiny Vietnamese and English TTS with an OpenAI-compatible endpoint under Apache 2.0, from an individual whose weights were replaced in place many times. ### The panel's reviews Ledger gives 5 for a 0.17 GB INT8 build that runs on a CPU, with commercial use of voices spelled out. Quill gives 3 for an OpenAI-compatible endpoint with streaming and formats against two languages and no independent results. Warden and Keel give 2, Warden for remote code on the GPU path and no cloning safeguards, Keel for model.safetensors re-uploaded on eight days without saying what changed. #### Where the panel agrees - It runs through the publisher's vieneu SDK, and the GPU path loads the MOSS codec with trust_remote_code (3 of 4) - The card's voice list lags the shipped SDK 3.8.3 (2 of 4) ## Notable - 1,365,842 downloads in 30 days and 82 likes on Hugging Face on 21 October 2026. The vieneu SDK downloads its files from this repository at first use (source: ) - Published from an individual's account. The card credits the architecture and training to Phạm Nguyễn Ngọc Bảo, and says it's trained from scratch on about 10,000 hours of English and Vietnamese speech, not a fine-tune of another TTS model (source: ) - The publisher's streaming guide reports first audio in about 115 ms and 16 concurrent real-time streams on one RTX 3060, and first audio in about 140 ms with the int8 CPU build. The publisher's claim (source: ) - The card's licensing FAQ says the speakers behind the preset voices consented to AI training and synthetic speech, and that the training pipeline isn't disclosed (source: ) - The repository holds several builds side by side: root and update/ safetensors, ONNX FP32 and INT8 graphs for the SDK's CPU path, and GGUF BF16 and Q8_0 files for audio.cpp, added 23 September 2026 (source: ) - Best text-to-speech APIs for AI agents: https://www.anchorterminal.com/best/text-to-speech/index.md - All 76 tts comparisons: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/text-to-speech/index.md - Best voice cloning and custom voice APIs for AI agents: https://www.anchorterminal.com/best/voice-cloning/index.md - All 76 cloning comparisons: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/voice-cloning/index.md ## Compare - [Ming-3.0-tts-0.5B vs VieNeu-TTS v3 Turbo](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/ming-3-0-tts-0-5b-vs-vieneu-tts-v3-turbo.md): C 57.8 vs C 58.5 - [Ming-3.0-tts-tiny vs VieNeu-TTS v3 Turbo](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/ming-3-0-tts-tiny-vs-vieneu-tts-v3-turbo.md): D 52.2 vs C 58.5 - [OmniVoice vs VieNeu-TTS v3 Turbo](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/omnivoice-vs-vieneu-tts-v3-turbo.md): C 56.9 vs C 58.5 - [Qwen3-TTS 12Hz 1.7B CustomVoice vs VieNeu-TTS v3 Turbo](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/qwen3-tts-1-7b-customvoice-vs-vieneu-tts-v3-turbo.md): C 58 vs C 58.5 ## Verify this listing For the vendor.
