ElevenLabs alternatives: 3 free & open-source picks
Curated, verified, and actually free. No trials, no crippled tiers. Star counts and last-activity dates checked by hand, not scraped and forgotten.
Un estudio de voz local con clonación, siete motores, transcripción y editor multipista; el doblaje aún requiere montaje manual.
licenseMIT
runson your machine
installInstall the macOS DMG or Windows MSI; Docker is supported, while Linux currently requires a source installation
enginesQwen3-TTS, Qwen CustomVoice, LuxTTS, Chatterbox Multilingual, Chatterbox Turbo, HumeAI TADA and Kokoro; Whisper/Whisper Turbo for speech-to-text; local Qwen3 models for refinement and personas
dataSQLite plus model, voice-profile, generated-audio and capture files in the local Voicebox data directory; original audio and transcripts stay on device
the catch vs ElevenLabsIt has no turnkey multilingual video translation and dubbing pipeline, and output consistency depends on the local engine and hardware.
setupLarge model downloads and choosing a hardware backend; Linux has no prebuilt binary yet

installDownload the prepackaged Windows archive, unzip it to a simple path and run sp.exe; source and Docker paths exist for other platforms
enginesASR via faster-whisper/Whisper, WhisperX, Parakeet and cloud APIs; translation via DeepSeek, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, MiniMax, Ollama/M2M100 and others; TTS via Edge-TTS, F5-TTS, CosyVoice, GPT-SoVITS, ChatTTS, Chatterbox, OpenAI/Azure and others
dataSource media, SRT subtitles, generated audio/video and configuration files in local output/config folders; selected cloud APIs receive the relevant media or text
the catch vs ElevenLabsIt automates a broad dubbing chain, but voice quality, timing consistency and workflow reliability vary sharply with the chosen local models and APIs.
setupThe Windows build wants a path without spaces or non-ASCII characters; GPU acceleration needs matching CUDA/cuDNN, and some backends need API keys

Un laboratorio de voz local de 10 GB con instalador y cada cajón de modelos abierto; las licencias de los modelos dependen de ti.

installOn Windows install TTS WebUI Ignition with winget; otherwise use a release/legacy installer or Docker
enginesExtension-driven local models including Bark, Tortoise, MMS, Vall-E X, StyleTTS2, SeamlessM4T, XTTSv2, F5-TTS, Parler-TTS, OpenVoice, Kokoro, DIA, CosyVoice, GPT-SoVITS, Piper and Chatterbox
dataDownloaded model caches, generated audio files and metadata in local installation/data directories; SQLite can hold generated-audio metadata
the catch vs ElevenLabsIt lacks ElevenLabs' consistent managed quality, production API and turnkey dubbing, while model licenses and GPU compatibility become the user's problem.
setupThe base install is about 10.7 GB, models add several gigabytes each, and GPU/CUDA or extension dependency conflicts are common

AllTalk TTSFeature-rich, but the maintained work lives off the stale main branch and installation still starts with Git, Python and C++ tools.
| tool | license | running it | platforms | stars | active |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Voicebox | MIT | one-click install | macos, windows | 49,500 | 2026-06 |
| pyVideoTrans | GPL-3.0 | one-click install | windows | 18,600 | 2026-07 |
| TTS WebUI | MIT | one-click install | windows | 3,200 | 2026-03 |
They pay for convincing voices, controls, and commercial workflow reliability. If none of that applies to you, any pick above saves $264 a year.
Is there a free alternative to ElevenLabs?
Yes: Voicebox, pyVideoTrans, TTS WebUI. Every tool on this page is either open source or genuinely free to use long-term: no trials, no crippled tiers.
Should I just build my own ElevenLabs?
Our verdict is NO TANTO. A TTS wrapper is easy, but high-quality voice models, voice cloning safety, dubbing workflows, licensing, and compute are the product. If you'd rather build, the exact one-shot prompt is free at puedovibecodearlo.app/elevenlabs.
