The idea is that mario will be the API version of a video maker while loqui will be the GUI version of a video maker. Both will be powered in the back end by functions here in ari.
Steps involved with this:
Add free version of tts-coqui to these text2speech and ari functions
Make GUI in loqui repo
Update mario repo for deployment to Hutch servers
Figure out billing for mario and loqui for when people want to use fancier tts options like Polly
For the GUI implementation and probably the API one, we would have a docker image that this would run on that already has https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS#install-tts installed.
