I am the developer of Elmren Voice; this submission was prepared with AI assistance. Elmren Voice is a text-to-speech studio for Apple Silicon M1+ Macs with macOS 13+. The current reading workflow is English. Authors can listen back to their own drafts, and families can make reading-practice materials from documents they own or have permission to use.
The app includes 64 built-in voices and optional local cloning of your own or permitted voice. Synthesis runs locally after voice-pack downloads. Import TXT, PDF, DOCX or EPUB and export self-contained word-highlighted HTML, chaptered M4B or captioned MP4. The no-card trial includes 120 synthesis minutes over 7 days from first launch. The full license costs $39.99 once for one Mac.
