OtterSpeech

OtterSpeech turns any web page into audio. Press play and it reads the article, document, or post you're on — highlighting each sentence and word as it goes, so you can follow along or just listen. WHY PEOPLE USE IT • Get through long articles while cooking, commuting, or walking. • Rest your eyes without losing your place in a long read. • Follow along with synced highlighting when reading is tiring or difficult. • Catch typos and clumsy phrasing in your own writing by hearing it read back. HOW IT WORKS Click the OtterSpeech button, or press Alt+O, and a small reading rail appears on the page. Press play and it starts reading. Click any paragraph to jump straight to it. FEATURES • Natural-sounding voices — free browser voices for everyone, plus premium OtterSpeech Pro voices. • Synced sentence and word highlighting that follows the narration. • A floating reading rail with play/pause, next and previous paragraph, speed control, and a voice picker. • Click-to-start: click any paragraph and reading begins from there. • Per-site settings, including optional autoplay on the sites you choose. • Keyboard shortcuts — Alt+P to play or pause, Alt+O to show or hide the rail, Alt+. and Alt+, to skip between paragraphs. • Follow-along scrolling that keeps the current sentence in view. • Works on articles, blogs, documentation, email, and more. FREE AND PRO The free browser voice works with no account and no sign-up. OtterSpeech Pro unlocks higher-quality premium voices through a subscription. Privacy policy: https://otterspeech.com/privacy
