Audiblez is a tool for generating high-quality .m4b audiobooks directly from .epub e-books using the Kokoro-82M neural text-to-speech model. It focuses on making audiobook creation easy and fast: from a single command, the tool splits an e-book into chapters, synthesizes audio for each section, and then merges the results into a structured audiobook with chapter-based WAV files and a final .m4b container. The Kokoro-82M model it uses is compact (82M parameters) yet natural sounding, trained on under 100 hours of audio, and supports multiple languages, including English (US/UK), Spanish, French, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese, and Mandarin Chinese. ...

The model attempts to match not just timbre, but also tone, pitch, emotion, and prosody of the reference audio, resulting in highly personalized output. ...
