STORM-OS TTS V2: Code-switching across five African languages
FrankFelixAI · x · 2026-08-29
PlotWeaver introduced STORM-OS TTS V2, designed for Africa's multilingual markets. The model supports natural code-switching within a single sentence across Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo, Pidgin, and English while preserving the speaker's native accent. It features consent-based voice cloning, allowing a Hausa speaker's voice to speak the other four languages. The system is currently in early access for multilingual sports use cases in India and Brazil, with businesses across Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, and Nigeria building on the API.
