A new project announced on Hacker News, OfflineTTS, delivers text‑to‑speech and
speech‑to‑text capabilities. The service runs completely within the browser without
requiring an internet connection. It is offered free of charge and works on common desktop
browsers. Users can input text to hear spoken output generated locally. Conversely, spoken
input can be transcribed into text without external servers. The tool leverages
WebAssembly and client‑side models to perform processing. This approach enhances privacy
by keeping audio data on the user’s device. The project invites community contributions
and feedback for future improvements.
