What is Vani Rachanakar?

Vani Rachanakar is a simple AI-assisted utility for teachers who want to create their own listening materials.

A teacher provides a conversation, chooses a voice and speaking rate for each dialogue entry, listens to the result, and creates a complete listening activity with a single click.

The generated material is a self-contained HTML file with the audio included. Once it has been created, students do not need access to the speech-synthesis service or even to the Internet.

No database.

No student accounts.

No specialised audio software.

Just a file that can be shared and played in a standard web browser.

What can a teacher create?

The teacher is free to create whatever material is appropriate for the learners.

For example:

  • Multi-speaker conversations — give different speakers different voices.
  • Different speaking rates — slow down speech for learners who need additional support.
  • Multilingual conversations — create conversations using English, Hindi, Gujarati, Kannada and other supported languages.
  • Code-switching activities — one speaker can use English while another responds in an Indian language, or a conversation can move between languages.
  • Locally relevant content — teachers can create conversations about their own community, school or surroundings.
The teacher supplies the content. Vani Rachanakar takes care of the audio.

 

How does it work?

1. Provide the text: Upload a text file containing the conversation, or enter the dialogue manually.

2. Choose the voices: For each dialogue entry, select the voice and speaking rate. Listen and make changes until you are satisfied.

3. Create the listening activity: Provide a file name and click on Create: Vani Rachanakar generates a self-contained webpage containing the conversation and its audio.

The finished activity can then be saved and shared with students.

Designed for Listening

A generated activity can be used without displaying the text.

Students can first listen to the conversation and then choose Show Text when they want to see the written dialogue.

This makes it possible to use the same material for listening practice, comprehension, pronunciation and language-learning activities.

Ideal for Resource-Limited Classrooms

In schools where English is taught as a second language, teachers may have limited access to ready-made listening materials in local accents.

Vani Rachanakar offers a simple alternative: teachers can create their own.

A cluster resource centre prepares locally relevant conversations and shares the resulting files with other schools. The generated material is self-contained, it can be used later without requiring continuous Internet access.

A conversation about a local market, a railway station, a school event or a familiar festival can become a listening activity in a few minutes.

The listening material reflects the language, culture and context of the learners themselves!

 

A Simple Tool, Not Another Complicated AI System

Vani Rachanakar is deliberately simple.

It does not attempt to automate lesson planning or replace the teacher. The teacher decides what students should hear, who should say it, and how it should be spoken.

AI provides the speech capability; the teacher provides the educational purpose.

The aim is simple: make a powerful technology easy for a teacher to use.
