I made an open-source, self-hostable synced narration platform for ebooks
Amazing! I've made a similar ebooks-audiobooks aligner years ago: https://github.com/r4victor/syncabook. At that time, I chose to synthesize the text and align two audio sequences because I found texts-alignment approaches (including ML-based ones) too compute-intensive and inadequate for long texts. I see Storyteller works by aligning the texts. Could you give some view on how long it takes to sync a book?
Also, my experience was that audio and text versions are often very different (e.g. the audio having an intro missing from the text). It'd very interesting to know how well Storyteller handles such cases. Does it require manual audio/text editing or handle the differences automatically?

I decided to spruce up the eBook I'm reading with additional functionality (more info in comments)
Unfortunaly, this audiobook isn't synchorized to the text on Kindle. So, in order to synchronize the epub and audio myself, initially, I tried using syncabook, but the results weren't great for some reason. I then tried using OpenAI's Whisper to generate the text from the audio. This might've given decent results, but ultimately I decided I wanted to keep the book's formatting (paragraphs, emphasis, etc.)

Anyone know of a tool to align (existing) subtitles to audio along sentence boundaries?
I've tried syncabook, but that didn't help. I've tried whisperX, to get word-level timings, but the results are pretty bad/unusable.

Have you found a way to get epub3 audio-ebooks?
From searching a bit I found https://github.com/r4victor/syncabook this might help anyone intrigued about the idea. I suspect this is the tool you're talking about? Your post is really a long form question, and could have been a lot shorter.
