Coqui is a brand that aims to liberate speech by offering cutting-edge technology. They are dedicated to open speech technology and act as a central hub where speech researchers, developers, and practitioners can come together. Coqui's projects include deep learning based speech-to-text (STT) and text-to-speech (TTS) engines, as well as a job scheduler.

Their mission is to bring research into reality and empower the open-source community. Coqui's story began in 2016 when the founders, while working at Mozilla, noticed that speech technology was mainly controlled by large corporations, leaving the open-source world behind. To address this, they took action and created open-source STT and TTS engines that have been used by thousands of people.

They also initiated projects to open source speech training data, attracting a vibrant and supportive community. Now, as Coqui, they continue to support and advance these open-source efforts and the community connected to them. The brand name 'Coqui' draws inspiration from the small but powerful coquí frog native to Puerto Rico.

Just like the frog's voice, the technology developed by Coqui may be nearly invisible, but it makes a significant impact. Stay connected with Coqui by signing up for their newsletter and following them on their journey to revolutionize speech technology
