How AudioForge works
From first draft to finished narration — one workspace, ten steps.
1. Create a story project
Give your story a name, genre, and a default voice and narration style. Projects hold chapters, scenes, narration, and Writer Buddy memory — all private by default.
2. Write or paste a chapter
Use the living manuscript editor to write directly or paste existing work. Autosave and revision history protect every change.
3. Choose a voice
Browse free voices, preview samples in several styles, and pick one for the project or a single chapter. Later, use your own cloned voice.
4. Pick genre and performance style
Fantasy, horror, romance, thriller and more, delivered natural, cinematic, suspenseful, intimate — the genre guides the performance without flattening it.
5. Generate narration
Generate a sentence, a paragraph, a scene, or the whole chapter. Generation runs in the background and never blocks your writing.
6. Listen with synchronized text
The current sentence highlights as it plays. Click any sentence to play from there. Adjust speed, skip by sentence, and replay freely.
7. Edit and regenerate only what changed
Pause on a weak line, edit it in place, and regenerate just that segment. Compare old and new audio before keeping either.
8. Direct the performance
Mark a line as whispered, frightened, sarcastic, or triumphant. Add pauses and emphasis. Each direction applies to its own segment.
9. Ask Writer Buddy when you're stuck
Brainstorm next scenes, check continuity, improve dialogue, and polish read-aloud rhythm. It remembers your story — per project — and respects every rejected idea.
10. Export your narration
Export MP3 or WAV: single chapters, selected scenes, or one combined audiobook with normalized volume and chapter markers.
