Paste your AO3 work URL into the import box above. LyricWinter fetches the full text (including multi-chapter works), detects every character, and generates a multi-voice audiobook. No account linking or browser extensions needed. For login-restricted works, copy the text from AO3 and paste it directly.
A podfic is a fan-created audio recording of a fanfiction story, typically read aloud by one or more volunteer narrators. LyricWinter offers an AI-powered alternative: automatic multi-voice narration with character-accurate voices, available for any story in minutes instead of weeks.
Converting fanfiction for personal listening is generally considered fair use, similar to using text-to-speech on any webpage. LyricWinter processes text you provide for your own private use. Generated audio is private by default — only you can access it unless you explicitly choose to share it.
LyricWinter can detect and assign voices to as many characters as appear in your story. Stories with 20+ characters work just as well as those with 2. Each character gets a distinct voice, plus a separate narrator voice for non-dialogue text.
LyricWinter offers a free tier with 2,500 words per month (~17 minutes of audio). Paid plans start at $6/month for longer stories per generation and more words each month. Signing up is free and takes seconds.
