THE BIG PICTURE
About Speechify
Speechify is a reading and voice assistant for turning text into audio. The product spans web, desktop, mobile, and browser-extension experiences, with tools for listening to documents and web pages, scanning printed text, and adjusting playback speed. Its current pricing page also lists voice typing, AI podcasts, an assistant, summaries, chat, and cloud-drive integrations on Premium.
Listening can make long reading sessions easier to fit into a commute or a second task, and following highlighted text may help some readers stay oriented. The useful test is not the biggest speed number; it is whether you can understand and retain the material at your chosen pace. Voice availability, language support, and feature access vary by plan, so check the exact device and language you need before subscribing.
