Speechify is excited to welcome Vlad Tenev, founder and CEO of Robinhood, as an investor.

Robinhood’s approach has helped millions better understand and interact with financial markets, and its design work has received industry recognition, including an Apple Design Award at WWDC.
Finance as a Key Workflow on Speechify
Finance has become one of the most important professional workflows on Speechify. Users rely on the platform to navigate 10-Ks, S-1s, earnings transcripts, and other long-form financial documents that traditionally require hours of focused reading.
Speechify allows users to listen to financial reports aloud, adjust playback speed, and revisit key sections hands-free. This makes it easier to stay informed throughout the day, whether commuting, multitasking, or preparing for meetings.
From Reading to Writing with Voice Typing Dictation
In addition to listening, Speechify Voice Typing Dictation supports how users work with complex information after reading. Professionals use dictation to speak notes, draft summaries, outline analyses, and write emails directly in tools like Google Docs, Gmail, Slack, and desktop applications. By allowing users to talk naturally while Speechify transcribes and polishes their writing in real time, dictation reduces the friction of moving from comprehension to written output.
This workflow is especially useful when working with dense documents such as financial reports, earnings transcripts, and regulatory filings. Users can listen to material aloud, pause to dictate thoughts or questions, and immediately capture insights without switching tools or breaking focus. Voice typing also makes it easier to work across devices, whether drafting on desktop or capturing ideas on the go.
As Speechify continues to expand as a Voice AI Assistant, users can go beyond passive listening or writing. They can ask documents for summaries, key risks, highlights, or specific details and receive responses instantly. Together, text to speech, voice typing dictation, and interactive voice-based tools help streamline how professionals review information and take action.
Speechify is excited to welcome Vlad Tenev as an investor and looks forward to continuing to build voice-based tools that support professionals working with complex, high-stakes information.
