Free browser text-to-speech with natural neural voices
Pick from neural AI voices with five reading styles so the output sounds like a person rather than a satnav, and set speed from 0.5x up to 2x.
Each sentence is highlighted while it is read, so you can follow along on screen, which is what makes it work for studying and proofreading by ear.
Paste plain text or upload a document, or drop in a link and the article text is extracted for you before playback.
Download the generated audio as an MP3 and keep it for commuting, the gym or any podcast app—no repeated regeneration needed.
Text to speech and voice AI across every device
Listen to books, PDFs, documents and web pages read aloud in a large library of lifelike AI voices.
Dictate instead of typing in almost any app, across Google Docs, Gmail, Slack, Outlook and more.
Turn documents or a short prompt into an AI podcast, and get instant summaries of what you are reading.
Use the web app, Chrome and Edge extensions, and native iOS, Android, Mac and Windows apps.
