About This Text to Speech Reader

This free text-to-speech (TTS) tool reads any text you paste out loud in a natural-sounding voice, right in your browser. It's handy for proofreading your own writing by ear, previewing how a script or announcement will sound, helping with accessibility, or simply having an article read to you while you do something else.

It uses your browser and operating system's built-in Speech Synthesis engine, so the available voices and languages depend on your device β€” most systems offer several. You can adjust the reading speed and switch voices instantly, with no signup and no text ever sent to a server.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which voices are available?

The available voices depend on your device and browser β€” most systems offer several built-in voices in different languages and accents. The dropdown lists all voices your browser can access.

Is there a text length limit?

No hard limit is set by this tool, though extremely long text may take a while and some browsers cap very long single utterances β€” for very long documents, consider reading it in a few sections.

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No β€” the text-to-speech conversion happens using your browser's built-in Speech Synthesis API, running locally on your device.

Can I download the audio?

This tool plays audio directly rather than exporting a file. For a downloadable audio version of read-aloud text, that's a heavier feature we may add in the future.
