| Summary | Bark is an open-source transformer-based text-to-audio model from Suno that generates realistic speech, music snippets, sound effects, and non-verbal vocalizations (laughter, sighs) directly from text prompts. Unlike conventional TTS systems, it is fully generative and can produce multiple audio types in a single model. | Balanced Claude model for coding and agents. |
