  This model is designed to support **phoneme-based text-to-speech (TTS) systems**, including but not limited to [StyleTTS2](https://github.com/yl4579/StyleTTS2). Thanks to its Spanish-specific phoneme vocabulary and contextual embedding capabilities, it can serve as a phoneme encoder for any TTS architecture requiring phoneme-level features.

- - It is trained **exclusively on Spanish** phonemized text.

- - It uses a reduced **phoneme vocabulary of 178 tokens**.
40
- - It uses wordpiece tokenizer.
