About Audiblez
Audiblez is an open-source tool that generates .m4b audiobook files from EPUB e-books using Kokoro-82M text-to-speech synthesis. It offers both a command-line interface and a graphical user interface for users to operate the tool. The tool supports 9 languages, including American English, British English, Spanish, French, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese, and Mandarin Chinese, with multiple voice options per language. It can run on CPU or CUDA-enabled GPUs for faster processing, though Apple Silicon GPU support is not currently available, and ffmpeg must be installed to produce the final .m4b output.
