We are excited to launch Myna-mini TTS Model & API for a research preview. This is the first in the world to support high-fidelity, text-to-speech in all 22 official Indic Languages & English with code-mixing capabilities and free playground access.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Suvrat, Founder and CEO of Gan.AI. We're excited to launch the research preview of Myna-mini, our groundbreaking text-to-speech model and API. Our team brings together deep learning expertise from Stanford, FAIR, IITs, BITS, Samsung, Microsoft, and Adobe Research, with over 1000+ combined citations.
🌏 Myna-mini is the first TTS model to support all 22 Official Indic languages alongside English. We're bridging the language gap and bringing voice technology to over 1 billion people.
Key features:
22 Indic languages + English 🗣️
5 diverse voices from different regions of India 🎙️
Native code-mixed support 🔄
High-quality, natural-sounding voices 🔊
Easy-to-use API 🖥️
Free Playground access 🆓
Code-mixed support means Myna-mini can seamlessly handle text that mixes multiple languages in a single sentence or paragraph. This reflects how people naturally communicate, switching between languages mid-conversation.
This research preview has some known issues, and we're eager for community feedback to shape its development. Tell us what you want to see in future iterations! 📊

Zero-shot cross-lingual voice cloning 🔁
Lip-sync API 🎬
Avatar API 📱
Our technology is trusted by world-renowned brands for personalizing video and audio campaigns, including Uber, Salesforce, Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Nestlé, the San Antonio Spurs, the Indian National Congress, and Four Seasons. 🏢
Our mission at Gan.AI is to make AI accessible and useful for everyone, regardless of the language they speak. Myna-mini is a big step towards that goal. 🎯
We'd love for you to give it a spin and share your thoughts. Whether you're building apps, creating content, or exploring new ways to communicate, Myna-mini is here to give voice to your ideas – in multiple languages, seamlessly mixed. 💡
Questions? Feedback? I'll be here all day to discuss. Let's explore how Myna-mini can empower your projects and how we can improve it further! 📈
Shoutout to @rohanrecommends for hunting us!
@rohanrecommends@suvrat This honestly looks like something we wanna use at kroto.one Have already shared with the CTO let's see what the tech genius thinks
Congratulations on the launch @suvrat ! This is fantastic news for the AI and TTS community. Supporting all 22 Indic languages alongside English is a huge achievement and can help make technology accessible to over a billion people.
Is there detailed documentation and sample code available to help developers get started with the API quickly?
Text-to-speech model that delivers high-quality output in all 22 official Indic languages and English, with the ability to mix languages, is a game-changing idea.
Congrats on the launch. Good luck!
Congratulation on the launch, great product, good job by you and your team.
any plan on adding similar new languages like Persian or Arabic? also, may I know what is the technical process for adding new languages? what is the input, how long does it take?
overall great product on the edge of tech, good luck today.
@m4jiz Thanks Majid! We have to source training data for each language, and vet it manually. It takes some time. Input is the text that you want to generate, in the native script of the language. We are able to achieve close to RTF of 1.0!
It was nice to play around with the tool, thanks for including the playground.
Just a quick suggestion, the example you have in the intro video is called "Code Switching" not "Code mixing". This would be an example of code-mixing:
Yo bro, क्या कर रहा है कल शाम को? मेरे घर पर midnight को एक house party है।We are going to "जै माता दी let's rock" it!
When I tried the above sentence, it didn't do as poorly as I expected it to. It was actually pretty workable. I can imagine using this tool for sound generation without a sound studio and then using my own audio editing tools to make it work for my videos. I would suggest adding some way to indicate tonality.
I tried code mixing without transliteration (just to test it out - it is often to handle such cases). I see that the team is yet to implement that. I am really looking forward to trying out (and helping test out) the future versions of the tool.
All the very best! This is amazing.
@avikalp_gupta Thank you for the kind words, Avikalp! We use "Code Switching", and "Code mixing" interchangeably in our messaging, and were loose with definitions internally. 😅
We're working on adding more control features to the audio generation pipeline! The next generation of models should support both without the need of transliteration as well!
Would love to learn more about how you foresee using this, and features we can prioritize for you!
Exciting launch, Suvrat! Myna-mini is a game changer for TTS, especially with its support for all 22 Indic languages. The code-mixed feature is a must-have given India's linguistic diversity. Can't wait to see how it evolves and the impact it will have on accessibility in voice tech. Upvoted! 🚀
@michaelgreen Thanks Michael! We wanted a multilingual model from the beginning to allow code mixing, and cross lingual voice cloning which is coming soon!
Yes! Making AI accessible and useful for everyone, regardless of the language they speak,which is the most inspiring words I have learned. A lot of people would benefit from Gan.AI. Cheers!
@kinraw Thanks for the support! The free Playground access is our way of letting everyone experience Myna-mini’s capabilities. Dive in and let us know how it can fit into your projects!
Congrats for the launch @suvrat! It's amazing how you're bridging language gaps and making AI more accessible. Can't wait to try it out and see how it can enhance multilingual communication
Congrats on the launch, Suvrat! 🌟 Myna-mini sounds like a game changer in the TTS space, especially with its support for all 22 official Indic languages. Bridging that language gap is no small feat! I love that you’re incorporating code-mixing; it's about time TTS reflects real-world communication.
Woot woot! Myna-mini is a game changer, especially with the support for all those Indic languages. This is so useful for everyday communication.
Congrats @suvrat@anupreet_singh1@saloni_jaju1
Let's gooo Team Gan.AI! 🎉"
@pratyush_r8 Thanks for your kind words! The playground is completely free and we’d love for you to give it a spin! Let us know what language you like best!
