When Not To Use This Tool

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my text uploaded to a server?

No. Your text never leaves your device. Audio generation happens locally using Kokoro v1.0 via WebAssembly, or the browser's built-in Web Speech API as a zero-download fallback.

What is the Web Speech API fallback?

If the Kokoro ONNX model cannot load, the tool automatically falls back to your browser's built-in speechSynthesis API. This requires ZERO model download and works immediately on Chrome, Edge, Safari, and Firefox.

Which languages and voices are supported?

English (US & UK), Spanish, Portuguese, and Indonesian. Each language offers male and female voice variants. The Web Speech API fallback provides additional voices depending on your OS.

Can I download the audio?

Yes. Kokoro-generated audio can be downloaded as WAV. When using the Web Speech API fallback, audio capture is limited by the browser — playback works but direct file export may not be available.
