## What is Voicebox?
Voicebox is a **local-first voice cloning studio** -- a free and open-source alternative to ElevenLabs. Clone voices from a few seconds of audio, generate speech in 23 languages across 4 TTS engines, apply post-processing effects, and compose multi-voice projects with a timeline editor.
Voicebox is a **local-first voice cloning studio** with DAW-like features for professional voice synthesis. Think of it as the **Ollama for voice** — download models, clone voices, and generate speech entirely on your machine.

- **Complete privacy** -- models and voice data stay on your machine
- **4 TTS engines** -- Qwen3-TTS, LuxTTS, Chatterbox Multilingual, and Chatterbox Turbo
- **23 languages** -- from English to Arabic, Japanese, Hindi, Swahili, and more
- **Post-processing effects** -- pitch shift, reverb, delay, chorus, compression, and filters
- **Expressive speech** -- paralinguistic tags like `[laugh]`, `[sigh]`, `[gasp]` via Chatterbox Turbo
- **Unlimited length** -- auto-chunking with crossfade for scripts, articles, and chapters
- **Stories editor** -- multi-track timeline for conversations, podcasts, and narratives
- **API-first** -- REST API for integrating voice synthesis into your own projects
- **Native performance** -- built with Tauri (Rust), not Electron
- **Runs everywhere** -- macOS (MLX/Metal), Windows (CUDA), Linux, AMD ROCm, Intel Arc, Docker
Unlike cloud services that lock your voice data behind subscriptions, Voicebox gives you:
