Hello, I am the sole developer, designer and founder of the project.

We are a two-person company that has bootstrapped the project so far.

I hope you like it. Do not hesitate to ask any questions.

Some technical nuggets:

- We spin up and down a K8s cluster based on load

- We use Tacotron and WaveGlow

- We use a "tweaked" version of Pix2Pix

- We use forced-aligners

- We have a speech-to-text DL model

- We have around ~30 discrete parts including microservices and cloud functions in an event-driven architecture

In broad terms, we manually select news from RSS feeds and then an automated system takes the text out from the news or blog post and generates a video.


Great.
