Listen to Any Website
Sometimes you don't want to read. Maybe your eyes are tired, you're multitasking, or reading just isn't your thing. Text to speech lets you highlight any text and have it read aloud.
It works on any website, PDF, or Google Doc. Just select the text you want to hear, click play, and listen.

How People Use It
Catching up on articles while making dinner or doing chores.
Proofreading writing by listening back to catch mistakes your eyes missed.
Studying by hearing material read aloud, which helps some people remember better.
Learning a language by hearing proper pronunciation.
Giving eyes a break after staring at screens all day.
Helping with reading difficulties like dyslexia, where listening can be easier than reading.
Customize How It Sounds
You control how the voice sounds:
Speed: Slow it down to catch every word, or speed it up to get through content faster.
Voice: Pick from different voices. Some people prefer a voice that matches their accent or language.
Highlighting: As the text is read, you can see each word highlighted. This helps you follow along and connects what you hear with what you see.
