Your whole book, narrated on your own computer.
Drop in a manuscript, pick a voice, export a finished audiobook. It runs locally, so there are no credits, no per-character bills and no limit on how many words you narrate.
From manuscript to audiobook in three steps.
Built for long text. Chapters, names and exports are handled for you, so you can spend your time listening, not wrangling files.
Drop in your file
EPUB, DOCX, TXT or Markdown. Chapters are detected and split automatically.
Pick a voice, fix the names
Choose from natural English voices and add a pronunciation list for character names and jargon.
Export and publish
One MP3 per chapter, or a single M4B audiobook with chapter markers.
For people who work in long form.
Indie authors
A narrated edition of every book, or a full listen-through to catch typos before you publish.
Course creators
Voice hours of lessons and re-record any section the moment your material changes.
Long-form video makers
Documentary-length scripts, as many takes as you need, with no meter running.
Cloud voices are great — until the meter runs.
Open voice models have become good enough for long listening. Fainry Narrator packages one into a normal desktop app, so you get the quality without the setup or the per-character pricing.

Straight answers.
How good do the voices sound?
Natural and comfortable for hours of listening. Honestly, not as expressive as the most expensive cloud voices — if you need acting and distinct character voices, a human narrator or a premium cloud service is still better.
What computer do I need?
A Windows PC with a recent NVIDIA graphics card, or a Mac with Apple silicon, gives the best speed. It also runs on a regular CPU, just more slowly.
Can I clone my own voice?
No. We deliberately don’t offer voice cloning, so nobody’s voice gets copied without consent.
Can I sell or publish the audio?
Yes. The voice model we build on is released under a license that allows commercial use. Check your publishing platform’s own rules on AI narration before uploading.
Which languages?
English at launch. Tell us in the sign-up form if you need another language.
