What is Piper TTS?

Piper is a fast, local text-to-speech system designed to run on low-power hardware such as a Raspberry Pi. It implements the Wyoming protocol for integration with Home Assistant and other home automation platforms.

Run Piper TTS in Even

Even Stacks launches Piper TTS as a managed container on your own machine. No compose files, no manual setup.

  1. Open the Even Stacks panel in Even. The container engine starts on demand.
  2. Find Piper TTS in the one-click services and click Launch.
  3. Even pulls the image, starts it on port 10200, and serves it over trusted HTTPS at https://piper-tts.localhost.

Drive Piper TTS with your AI agents

Even ships an MCP, so any agent you run inside Even (Claude Code, Codex, and more) can operate Piper TTS directly, at both the UI level and the container level.

Through the Even MCP an agent can pull a model, call the local endpoint, and wire it into a tool, all on your own hardware. It runs commands inside the container, reads its logs, and for web apps opens and clicks through the interface in Even's own browser pane. Ask once, for example "set up Piper TTS and get it ready", and the agent handles it end to end.

How agents reach it: Send text for synthesis via the Wyoming protocol on port 10200; integrate with Home Assistant or other Wyoming-compatible consumers. Voice model files (ONNX) must be present in the /data volume. Use docker exec <container> piper --help to synthesize directly to a file.
