Applio is a voice conversion tool built on the RVC lineage, packaging model training, inference and management behind a simpler interface than the original web UI. Everything runs locally: the source audio, the trained voice models and the output all stay on the machine, with no service holding the voice. MIT licensed and considerably more active than the original RVC WebUI.
Why this trust score (87/100)
Trust measures how the tool treats your API key and how much of that has been verified. It contains no popularity signal.
- Key Safety 25/25: No cloud key is needed at all. The model runs locally.
- Request Routing 17/20: Requests go straight from you to the AI provider.
- Transparency 20/20: Source is public under MIT, so anyone can check how the key is handled.
- Privacy 14/15: Local-first: it works without sending your data anywhere. Can be self-hosted, so the data path stays inside infrastructure you control.
- Maintenance 10/10: Actively developed, with commits within the last three months.
- Verification Confidence 1/10: Compiled from public documentation by an AI-assisted pass, not independently confirmed.

How your API key is handled
Key handling varies. Requests are sent directly to the AI provider. Because it can be self-hosted, your key never has to touch a third-party backend.
Setup
Add your provider API key in settings and choose a model.
