InkVoice reads your own EPUB and PDF files aloud using local text-to-speech voices, so nothing gets uploaded and there's no account or subscription. A few things I focused on: The word being spoken stays highlighted, and you can click any word to start listening from there. Speed goes up to 2.5x without the chipmunk effect. It runs on an ordinary CPU and the app is about 5 MB. The first voice is around 400 MB. It's Windows and Linux only for now. No macOS yet. Scanned PDFs and DRM books won't work. Only english support for now. The app currently supports 3 tiny TTS models. Kokoro 82M, underdog woof, and Phonon from Gradium. https://sabeel111.github.io/InkVoice/   submitted by   /u/Inside_Ad_6240 [link]   [comments]
