# jamiepine/voicebox

> A local-first AI voice studio: clone voices, generate speech with 7 TTS engines, and dictate into any app via a global hotkey. An open-source alternative to ElevenLabs and WisprFlow running entirely on your machine.

## Useful for

- Clone a voice from a short sample and synthesize speech in a chosen language
- Dictate text into any field via a global hotkey without cloud services
- Connect an MCP agent to voicebox.speak so it replies in a cloned voice

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-25 (UTC), 00:12–11:05: 58466 → 58493 stars (+27). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +62 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Interest is fading: the two-day pace is 53% of the previous week and a half.
- About 11 forks a day — people are taking the code.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 7,342
- Issues and pull requests: 1,205
- Watchers: 258
- Average over the last week: 89 per day
- Usual pace: 126 per day
- Latest release: v0.5.0 (2026-04-25)

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
