# LocalAI vs F5-TTS

LocalAI and F5-TTS share 11 technologies: Gradio, matplotlib, accelerate, bitsandbytes, torch, transformers, torchaudio, librosa, datasets, safetensors, and torchcodec. LocalAI is written in Go and F5-TTS in Python.

- [mudler/LocalAI](https://seerepo.com/r/mudler/LocalAI): LocalAI is the open-source AI engine. Run any model - LLMs, vision, voice, image, video - on any hardware. No GPU required.
- [SWivid/F5-TTS](https://seerepo.com/r/SWivid/F5-TTS): Official code for "F5-TTS: A Fairytaler that Fakes Fluent and Faithful Speech with Flow Matching"

| | LocalAI | F5-TTS |
|---|---|---|
| Size | 1,389,292 lines written, 2,979 code files | 13,839 lines written, 34 code files |
| Who writes it | 3.7% of its commits signed by AI. With Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Cursor | 0.2% of its commits signed by AI. With Claude Code |
| Activity | Last push November 5, 2026, 9,317 commits, 50,214 stars | Last push November 3, 2026, 574 commits, 15,531 stars |
| Tests | 2,911 test files. 60.8% of its code files have a test that imports them | 0 test files |

- Size: Lines written by people and agents, without generated ones; code files, without tests.
- Who writes it: A commit counts as AI's when it carries its signature: a Co-Authored-By line, its author name or the merge of its branch.
- Activity: From GitHub and its history, on the day SeeRepo read it.
- Tests: The files that test the code, and the share of code files a test imports.
