Gustav Ek bemutatta az Epilude Narrator nevű alkalmazást, amely egy kifejezetten Mac-re tervezett, helyi adatfeldolgozású hang- és produktivitási segédeszköz. A szoftver segítségével a felhasználók közvetlenül diktálhatnak formázott szövegeket bármilyen beviteli mezőbe, valamint online botok nélkül rögzíthetik a megbeszélések hanganyagát.
Az eszköz legújabb funkciója a kijelölt szövegek hanggá alakítása az EP-1 helyi hangmodell segítségével. A felolvasás során a program egy kis lejátszóban mutatja a szöveget, és olvasás közben kiemeli az éppen elhangzó szavakat, ami segíti a megértést. Mivel a feldolgozás teljesen a számítógépen történik, semmilyen adat nem hagyja el a felhasználó eszközét.
Az elkészült hanganyagok szinkronizálhatók az Epilude webes fiókjával, így azok útközben, mobilról is meghallgathatók vagy megoszthatók másokkal. Az alkalmazás ingyenesen kipróbálható a Mac-felhasználók számára.
Az eredeti szöveg (Product Hunt)
Hey Product Hunt, Gustav here from Epilude. Epilude is the voice productivity suite for your Mac we wish Apple would build, with dictation, meeting recording and now, text-to-speech with voices you'll actually like listening to with Narrator.Today we're expanding Epilude with Narrator, a completely private text-to-speech tool that narrates any test on your Mac without any of your data leaving your machine.
Here's how it works: - Select any text in any app on your Mac, or point it at a document or public URL (like that article you're interested in but never found time to sit down and read). Narrator will process the text locally using our local voice model EP-1 voice, and turn it into a narrated sound clip without any data leaving your Mac. - As your narration starts, a small player appears and reads your text aloud, highlighting each word as it reads to you. We've found this often helps a lot with comprehension, as you can both listen to the text and read along at the same time.- You can send your narration to your Epilude account on web, so that you can access it from anywhere and listen when you're on the go. This also lets you share your narrations with anyone you want.You can try Narrator completely for free. We're really excited for you to try it out. Happy listening!
Hey Product Hunt - Mark here, the other half of Epilude.
I've had the same dozen articles open in tabs for months, fully intending to read them. These days I select one before I leave the desk, Narrator turns it into audio on the Mac, and I listen to it while walking the dog. I've got through more of them in the last few weeks than in the previous year.
Yogi has now sat through three longreads on Postgres indexing. Not sure she's convinced. Would be good to hear what you make of it.
P.S. of course this was written with Epilude 😉
