SCREENSHOTS:
abogen
DESCRIPTION:
abogen is a tool designed to generate audiobooks (or speech narrations) from textual sources such as EPUBs, PDFs, or plain text, with synchronized captions. In other words, it automates the pipeline of reading a digital book (or document), converting its text into speech via a TTS engine, and packaging the result into an audiobook format — likely along with timestamped captions or subtitles that align with the spoken audio. This can be very useful for accessibility, content consumption on the go, or for users who prefer audio over reading. The repository supports handling common ebook formats and generating outputs that combine audio plus caption metadata. By automating text-to-speech for arbitrary documents, abogen reduces the friction of producing audiobooks and could be integrated into larger workflows (e.g., batch converting a library of texts).
