Earlier today, Speechify officially launched its Voice AI Assistant on iOS, complementing its recent Voice AI Assistant Launch on Chrome & Web, to compete with all major AI Assistants, including ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, Siri, and Alexa.
Speechify CFO Pankaj Agarwal said: "Speechify is now an AI Assistant that can research for you, talk to you, write for you, create for you, entertain you, quiz you, browse the internet for you, lecture you, summarize for you, and read for you. We believe that the future of AI Assistants across all use cases will be driven by voice, and Speechify will win given our voice-first approach. Our mission is to 10x your productivity and joy across work, learning, and every part of your daily life."
Anyone can now use the Speechify Voice AI Assistant to get instant answers, browse the internet, engage in contextual dialogue and multi-turn conversations, and do voice activated actions like creating a podcast or opening a book. Soon, the AI assistant will include additional complex commands, managing notifications, and workflow automation like answering and making phone calls on your behalf according to AI-powered instructions you provide.
Speechify CEO & Founder Cliff Weitzman said: "Speechify is now an AI productivity platform that spans thinking, writing, reading, dictation, editing, research, and content creation across all devices, surfaces, and apps. This includes iOS/Android, web, Chrome, Mac, Windows & more. We go deeper than any other AI productivity platform, including ChatGPT, Notion, Grammarly, Claude, etc. in our Voice AI capabilities."
Speechify is no longer an AI text to speech reading platform. It is now a general-purpose AI Assistant, driven by Voice AI, that has bundled the functionality of NotebookLM, ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini, Perplexity, WisprFlow, Notion, Grammarly, and many other AI productivity tools all into one single platform. Many Speechify users have cancelled other AI productivity tools and AI assistant, given the leading role of voice as the interface for interacting with AI, and just how deep Speechify goes across these use cases. The Voice AI experience in particular is faster and more user friendly than any other platform.
Unlike Apple's Siri and Amazon's Alexa, Speechify has deep functionality and intelligence regardless of your device or surface, including your browser. This provides a level of ubiquity for Speechify users who want an AI assistant that follows them everywhere they go and remembers all of their context which Siri and Alexa do not. Siri and Alexa also offer subpar Voice AI experiences to Speechify on quality, depth and speed of voice selection, and functionality like AI-powered voice typing, AI podcasts, an AI document workspace, and the depth of third-party content integrations for creating AI audio content.
Speechify is already the #1 most used Voice AI Assistant in the iOS App Store that's voice-first and our goal is to be the most used AI Assistant in the entire world, serving every use case imaginable from work to learning to entertainment.
