What problem does it solve?
Converts dense investigative and journalistic articles into ready-to-play MP3 narration so Levi can share reporting with audio-first review while saving time on manual TTS editing.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Rewrite-for-ear guidance enforces contractions, spelled-out numbers, and silence markers so the article flows naturally when spoken.
- Chunked TTS rendering calls Google Cloud's Chirp 3 HD voice per paragraph, stitches sections with silence, and exports a single MP3 with duration and size reporting.
- Use Case prepares finished pieces from the Bingaman archive by rewriting, saving
_TTS.txtcopies, then running the renderer to deliver the final audio file and stats.
Quick Start
Rewrite the article per the rules, save the `_TTS.txt` version, and run render_audio.py with the rewritten file and desired mp3 path to create the narration.
