TTS Text To Speech

TTS Text To Speech

A small Gradio app that turns typed text into spoken audio. Use it in the browser on Hugging Face or run a copy on your own computer.

About

What it is: This Space is a small text to speech app built with Gradio. It turns text you provide into spoken audio. The repository holds just a README, an app.py file and a requirements.txt file, so it is easy to read through.

Who it suits: People who want to hear text read aloud without setting up software. Developers who want a short Gradio text to speech example to copy will also find it handy.

Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example
Content creation | Video and podcast makers | Turn a short script into audio | Hearing a draft line spoken before recording it themselves
Accessibility | People who prefer listening | Have written text read to them | Listening to a paragraph instead of reading it
Software | Python developers | Read app.py as a base for their own text to speech page | Copying the Space and changing the interface

If you need a specific voice, language or sound quality, check the app first, because the source does not say what it offers.

Where to use it:

• A web browser, on the Space's page at Hugging Face
• Windows with Python
• macOS with Python
• Linux with Python

Use case | Who | What they get back
Read text aloud | Anyone with text to hear | Spoken audio of that text
Study a Gradio example | Developers | A short app they can copy and change

How to set it up: Online use needs nothing. A copy on your own computer needs a little.

• Python on Windows, macOS or Linux
• The pip tool, to install the packages from requirements.txt
• Nothing at all if you use the Space online, since it runs in the browser

1. Install the Hugging Face hub package.
2. Download the Space's files into a local folder.
3. Move into that folder.
4. Install Gradio at the pinned version, then the packages from requirements.txt.
5. Start the app.

pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download keshav6936/GENAI-TTS-Text-to-Speech --repo-type space --local-dir GENAI-TTS-Text-to-Speech
cd GENAI-TTS-Text-to-Speech
pip install gradio==4.36.1
pip install -r requirements.txt
python app.py

How to use it: Online, open the Space's page and use the app there. On your own computer, run this command from the project folder and open the page Gradio shows.

python app.py

Example: You open the app and give it a sentence of text. The app turns the sentence into spoken audio that you can play.

For newcomers and experts: If you are new to this, open the Space's page and try one short sentence. Nothing needs installing, and you hear the result.

If you know the field, the source names no model, voice list or language list, so read app.py and requirements.txt to see which text to speech engine sits underneath. Gradio is pinned to version 4.36.1.

Open the Space or run app.py locally
You give the app some text
The app turns the text into speech
You play the audio

Good to know: The source gives little detail, so check the output yourself.

• License: GPL 2, as the Space's license line says
• Cost to run: none named
• Data it reaches: the text you give it. The source names no other files, accounts or services
