Adachi Rei (足あ立だちレイ) is a vocal synthesizer character created by missile39 initially for the UTAU vocal synthesizer program and released on October 2019. In October 2021, a text-to-speech library was released for her in collaboration with AI, Inc.'s A.I.VOICE software under the name REPLIVOICE Adachi Rei.

Adachi Rei is conceptualized to be a robot. Rei is a fully computer-generated UTAU. The process was done by adding sine waves together in Audacity (a.k.a. additive synthesis), creating consonants from a synthesized xylophone sample, running the samples through the VST plug-in Vocalizer, and finally editing it all once again in Audacity. She has a choppy and robotic sound.
