How it works

Three steps. No setup.

Open the reader, paste, press play. Settings — language, speed, volume, mode — persist between sessions.

Step 02

Pick a voice

Choose among 31 languages — or let auto-detect pick for you. Dial the speed and volume.

Press play

Follow the highlight, click a word to jump, pause with the spacebar. Your spot is remembered.
