Text to speech that fits into your day
Select the text, press play, keep moving. Listening instead of reading frees your eyes and your hands.
Natural TTS voices
Clear, natural text-to-speech voices you can actually listen to for a whole article — not the robotic kind.
Select text, press play
Highlight any text on any page and it starts reading. No copy-paste into a separate text-to-speech website.
Rest your eyes
Give your eyes a break on long reads. Listen to reports, newsletters and long articles instead of staring at them.
Dozens of languages
Reads content in many languages, with the interface available in 50+ of them.
Private by default
Pick a voice that runs on your device and your text never has to be uploaded to be turned into speech.
Bring your own AI voice
Prefer studio AI voices? Add your own voice-API key. Optional — the free TTS voices work out of the box.
Free text to speech, without the usual catch
Most text-to-speech tools cap your free words, then ask for a card. Read It To Me keeps the built-in voices free and skips the sign-up entirely.
