Hi Reddit,

I previously built Supertonic, a lightweight TTS model, and I'm now working on a free TTS web app called Airy Studio, aimed at everyday, non-technical users.

I started Airy Studio because developers already have plenty of great options these days, like Qwen-TTS and Kokoro. But most casual users still have to pay for even basic TTS functionality, which I think should change. (I'm not sure if that holds globally, but it's the case in South Korea, where I'm based.)

I have a research background in TTS, but I'm not a heavy user myself. So I'm wondering what you all think is missing from TTS services right now, or what features you wish existed.
