What is FAIR (Free AI Reader)?

Features:

Source: article link, video link (YouTube, Rutube, VK — narration is built from the subtitle track; language selectable), or a file (pdf / docx / txt / md / fb2 / epub / rtf / html). For multi-chapter FB2/EPUB books the app asks which chapter to narrate.
Condensing: ready profiles (10 %, 30 %, 50 %, 100 %) and custom levels with your own prompt.
Speech: Piper (fast, CPU) or VOX (high quality, clone your own voice from a 5–15 s mic sample; the VOX voices Alsu (Russian) and John (English) build in). Speech rate, pause between chunks, autoplay after analysis. Finished narration can be saved to an audio file. Analysis model: any GGUF; Gemma 4 E4B Q4_K_M (≈5 GB) is offered by default. Integration with Hermes: local API + MCP bridge (fair_status, fair_speak) so AI assistants can start narration from the command.
