## About

### What it is

Kokoclone turns typed text into speech in the voice of a short audio clip you give it. It builds on the Kokoro text-to-speech engine and adds voice cloning. It handles eight languages and has a Gradio web page for quick tests.

### Who it suits

Developers and creators who need a cloned voice quickly, such as for a voice assistant prototype, a narration or a demo. It also suits researchers running small voice experiments.

Who uses voice cloning

| Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Software | Developers of voice assistants | Prototype a speaking assistant with a chosen voice | Test a reply in a cloned voice |
| Media | Content creators | Narrate scripts in a voice they own | Read a short script aloud in their own voice |
| Research | Speech researchers | Run small experiments on voice transfer | Compare a clone against its reference clip |
| Education | Language teachers | Generate spoken examples in several languages | Make a spoken phrase in French or Japanese |

If you need a fixed stock voice with no reference clip, you can skip it.

### Where to use it

- A web browser: the Space runs on Hugging Face with nothing to install
- Your own computer, running Python 3.12.12 on Windows, macOS or Linux
- A standard laptop CPU, or a GPU for faster speech

| Use case | Who | What they get back |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Clone a voice from a short clip | Creators | Typed text spoken in the voice of the reference clip |
| Generate speech in another language | Teachers and developers | Speech in English, Hindi, French, Japanese, Chinese, Italian, Portuguese or Spanish |
| Build a quick demo | Developers | A Gradio page with text, language and reference upload |

### How to set it up

- Python 3.12.12 and pip
- The Python packages in requirements.txt
- The system packages in packages.txt, which Hugging Face installs with apt-get

1. Install the Hugging Face hub package and download the Space into a folder.
2. Move into that folder.
3. Install Gradio 6.8.0, then the packages from requirements.txt.
4. Start the app with Python.

```sh
pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download Stevensayer7/clone --repo-type space --local-dir clone
cd clone
pip install gradio==6.8.0
pip install -r requirements.txt
python app.py
```

The README says NVIDIA users who want GPU speed install the requirements and the GPU build of kokoro-onnx instead.

```sh
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install kokoro-onnx[gpu]
```

### How to use it

Start the app, then open the page it serves in your browser. Type your text, pick a language, upload a reference voice and generate the speech. Model files download on the first run. The README also shows a Python call.

```python
from core.cloner import KokoClone

cloner = KokoClone()

cloner.generate(
    text="This voice is cloned using KokoClone.",
    lang="en",
    reference_audio="reference.wav",
    output_path="output.wav"
)
```

### Example

You upload a reference clip of about three to ten seconds, type a sentence in English and pick the English language option. The app generates that sentence as speech in the voice of your clip.

### For newcomers and experts

If you are new to this, open the Space, record a short clip of your own voice and upload it. Type one sentence and listen to the result. Use only voices you have the right to copy.

If you know the field, it pairs the Kokoro ONNX text-to-speech engine with the Kanade tokenizer for voice conversion, which gives zero-shot cloning from one short clip. The trade is a small, fast model that runs on CPU, in exchange for the fidelity a larger system might reach.

You type text and pick a language → You upload a short reference clip → Kokoro speech is converted to your voice → The cloned audio comes back

### Good to know

- Languages: English, Hindi, French, Japanese, Chinese, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish
- First run: the app downloads the model files it needs automatically
- Data it reaches: the reference clip you upload, and model files fetched on first run
- License: apache-2
- Cost to run: none named
