### 🎙 VoiceStudio — a whole voice studio that runs on your own machine

**VoiceStudio** is the open-source, fully-local ElevenLabs alternative: voice cloning, voice design, video dubbing, dictation, transcription, stories and audiobooks in **646 languages** — running on your own machine, with no account, no API key and no credits. The only thing you spend is your CPU or GPU time.

```auto
script ─┐ ┌─► narration, in a cloned voice
video ─┼──► VoiceStudio ─────►├─► dub: any language, same timing
audio ─┘ on your disk ├─► transcript, never uploaded
                                └─► audiobook chapters

```

**What you can do with it**

- 🎙 **A voice from three seconds.** Clone once, then narrate every video in that voice forever — no re-recording, no robot reading your script.
- 🎬 **Dub any video into any language, same timing.** The beats survive, so the clip stays watchable in a language you don’t speak.
- 📚 **Cast a script instead of writing narration.** Describe a voice and get it, voice every role, and turn a script into chapters — one person becomes a full cast.
- 🎧 **Dictation and transcription that never leave the machine.** Speak and it types; drop in audio and it writes — client calls, interviews, lectures.
- 🤖 **It wires into your agent.** Local API + MCP for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex CLI and the Agents SDK — and **v0.5.6 answers a Twilio phone call in a voice you saved**.
- 🌍 **646 languages in one project** — and a way to hear your own text read in the language you’re learning.

One app instead of the subscription, the dubbing service, the transcription tool and the audiobook narrator — unlimited runs, files on your disk. **52,123 stars** , AGPL-3.0, v0.5.6.

**Start in three steps**

1. Install — [Windows x64 installer](https://github.com/debpalash/VoiceStudio/releases), macOS DMG, Linux AppImage, or one command: `curl -fsSL https://voicestudio.sh/install | sh`.
2. Let the first run pull its models (a few GB) and pick an engine that fits your machine.
3. Generate two sentences before a full script — quality, speed and pronunciation first.

> **🔧 Worth knowing before you install**
>
> - **Licence:** the app is **AGPL-3.0, free for commercial use** ; model weights keep their own terms — check the model you pick before paid client work.
> - **Installers are unsigned** (macOS builds not notarized) — your OS will warn; download from the official release page and compare the SHA-256.
> - **GPU optional:** NVIDIA CUDA or Apple Silicon MPS when you have it; on CPU use lighter engines (KittenTTS / Supertonic-3 / PocketTTS). An Intel Mac runs the interface only.
> - Pro and Cloud tiers stay optional — local-first means remote services are opt-in.
