“Speechify is absolutely brilliant. Growing up with dyslexia this would have made a big difference. I’m so glad to have it today.“
Sir Richard Branson
This software is so well designed, and it works all the time. I highly recommend this software for people looking for text to speech software. Just hit control C and then click read and it reads whatever you copied. Thanks for such a stable software.

A great tool to use when you have attention deficit disorder, limited range of motion/physical disability, making things easier to be at your fingertips. ReadAlound needs a icon or share icon to connect to the different websites quicker.

This app is just what I was hoping for. I can copy and paste text from documents I'm writing into this app and listen to the flow. I don't use it for anything else, but it would be extremely easy to read web text or PDF text as well using this program. After using it for a few weeks, I bought the paid version, which gets rid of the ads. What I like: the different voices (I like the female, UK English one), fast and easy to put text into the reading pane, ability to pause and start. Really accurate pronunciations. What I'd change: I'd make it so I can have this reading in the background while I have a different window maximized (i.e., while I'm in my word processing program). It would be great if we could also customize pronunciations. The engine incorrectly pronounces certain words (surprisingly few, though), and it would be great to be able to edit that as is possible on other programs.

"Cloud Text to Speech API has a really pleasant working experience on a software I've had a user in terms of its features and capabilities. It includes multiples types, and formats of voices and supports SSML which is a must on complex voice projects. The API integrates with the customer service bot on the phone, to the read-aloud option for stories/books on our website."
- CEO - Education Industry
"I used this with a service provider as a trial - surprisingly natural experience with unique tone to help personalise the interaction. It certainly felt somewhat real and lifelike and was consequently much more engaging, comfortable and seamless."
- Engineer - Energy Production
