# PDF to Podcast
## Overview
This project provides a tool to convert any PDF document into a podcast episode! Using Google's Gemini for dialogue generation and OpenAI's text-to-speech models, this tool processes the content of a PDF, generates a natural dialogue suitable for an audio podcast, and outputs it as an MP3 file.
## Features
- **Convert PDF to Podcast:** Upload a PDF and convert its content into a podcast dialogue.
- **AI-Powered Dialogue:** Uses Google's Gemini LLM to create engaging, natural conversations.
- **High-Quality Audio:** Leverages OpenAI's text-to-speech for lifelike voices.
- **User-friendly Interface:** Simple interface using Gradio for easy interaction.
## Installation
To set up the project, follow these steps:
1. **Clone the repository:**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/knowsuchagency/pdf-to-podcast.git
cd pdf-to-podcast
```
2. **Install dependencies:**
```bash
uv sync
```
## Usage
1. **Set up API Key(s):**
You'll need an api key for OpenAI which you can either pass through the interface or set as the `OPENAI_API_KEY` environment variable.
2. **Run the application:**
```bash
python main.py
```
This will launch a Gradio interface in your web browser.
3. **Upload a PDF:**
Upload the PDF document you want to convert into a podcast.
4. **Enter OpenAI API Key:**
Provide your OpenAI API key in the designated textbox.
5. **Generate Audio:**
Click the button to start the conversion process. The output will be an MP3 file containing the podcast dialogue.
