Voicebox

Catalogue summary: Desktop app & orchestrator for local TTS - not a model. Provides a UI studio, voice profile management, and a local API. Generates audio via swappable backends (Qwen3 TTS, Kokoro, Piper, XTTS…). Think of it as a front-end shell that runs on top of your installed TTS models.
