Pandrator

What it does

Brings document preparation, transcription, optional AI correction and translation, speech generation, review and export into one browser-based workflow, so producing an audiobook or a dubbed track happens in a single place rather than across several tools. Speech and transcription can run on local models to keep material on your machine; cloud providers are optional. Narrating someone else's copyrighted text and distributing it is a rights problem.
