Dudley Editions: personalised audiobooks
After over a year of working on this project, I can finally announce that Dudley Editions is out in the world. It’s available for download (in apple and google play stores), letting you make and share personalised audiobooks. Imagine being able to listen to books, narrated by parents, grandparents, friends, and family that aren’t able to read to you in person. Our goal is to use technological innovation for social good, strengthening relationships and preserving something personal and deeply important for our diverse community of users.
We want to ensure that the stories and voices of loved ones continue to resonate and inspire across generations. Simply record your voice, buy a book, and in a few minutes you will have a personalised audiobook narrated with your voice that you can listen to and share within the app. While this isn’t a translation tool, it does work across 29 lanaguages. If you upload your voice sample in, say English, Dudley can create you a Spanish, Hindi, Finnish, etc. audiobook.
If you are a publisher or literary agent (from any country) that wants to see how we can work together to help people make connections with audiobooks, get in touch. We aren’t replacing professional audiobooks. This is a new kind of audiobook and associated copyright.
