"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 BransonMost popular feedback for Speechify
I’ve always been so frustrated with my dyslexia. It just gets in the way and slows me down. This app is a huge help in getting past the barriers that my dyslexia throws at me. I just wish I could pay monthly for the app. The annual chunk is at much for me to do all at once.

The neural voices that Azure offers are incredible. The sound is very realistic, like a human being. I like they offer neural voices in different languages even in Spanish and different dialects or accents, so you can use them for different purposes.

Easy conversion from a voice recorded speech to text. Making speech into notes. When the user is not able to understand the speech he can leverage this API to understand what the user is trying to convey.
