For video creators and technical educators

Turn the script you already wrote into narration you can actually edit.

Kokoro Markdown Narrator is a proposed local-first tool for creators who write in Markdown and want faster voiceover drafts, clearer timing, and portable subtitle outputs—without rebuilding the script in a cloud editor.

Proposed workflow

Move from script to editable narration without losing structure.

The proposed workflow uses your Markdown file as the source of truth, then prepares the parts you need for review and handoff rather than locking the project inside a new editor.

01

Parse the script by section

Use headings and content blocks to create manageable narration segments instead of one difficult-to-revise audio file.

02

Generate and review locally

Keep source text and intended audio assets in your own project environment while you review wording, pronunciation, and pacing.

03

Export for the real edit

Prepare timed audio segments and subtitle-ready text for the video or audio tools already in your production workflow.

The honest status

This is a product decision, not a finished product.

The concept is being validated before development time is committed. Joining tells us the problem is relevant to you and gives you first access if the evidence supports a build.

Before you decide

Questions, answered clearly.

The current scope, privacy model, and next step without launch-day promises.

Is Kokoro Markdown Narrator available to download now?

No. This is a validation page for a proposed product. Joining early access helps determine whether a focused first build is justified.

Would I need to upload scripts to a cloud service?

The intended product direction is local-first. Scripts and generated project assets should remain in the creator’s own environment.

Is this a complete audio or video editor?

No. The proposed scope is the path from structured Markdown to reviewable narration and subtitle-ready outputs, designed to hand off to an existing editor.

What happens when I request access?

Your email is recorded for this experiment only. You will receive one relevant update or beta invitation if the concept moves forward.

Early access

Does Markdown already run your content workflow?

Request early access if you want to test a focused script-to-narration workflow on a real project. Your use case will help define the smallest beta worth building.
