What people are saying

Kothon is used by creators, teachers, and developers across Bangladesh. Here’s a handful of notes from the people using it every day.

Cloned my own voice in ten seconds — now my audiobook narrates itself while I sleep.
Nusrat J. · audiobook producer
The only TTS that gets Bangla numbers and English code-switching right. “৳১,৫০০” sounds perfect.
Rafi A. · indie developer
Our kids' learning app shipped with Kothon. The students think a real teacher is talking.
Tanvir H. · edtech founder
Sylheti dialect support sold me. My parents finally use our app without complaining.
Sumaiya K. · product designer
Replaced our paid cloud TTS in an afternoon. WAV export and local voice profiles — exactly what we needed.
Imran S. · software engineer
Record, name the profile, pick it from the dropdown. My students do the whole flow themselves.
Farhana R. · teacher
In-app playback plus save-as-WAV makes editing podcast intros effortless.
Arif M. · podcaster
Runs great on my old laptop. No subscriptions, no per-character fees — just works.
Zahid H. · freelancer
Better than most other paid Bangla voices out there, and it stays on my machine.
