- I’ve had a really positive experience using the Speechify Chrome extension. It makes reading online content so much easier and more engaging, especially for long articles, PDFs, or study material. The text-to-speech quality is clear and natural, and I like that I can adjust the speed based on my preference. It would be great if more voices were available for free users, as that would make the tool even more accessible especially for students and those who rely on text-to-speech support.

- Aidan Davies
- Honestly can't live without Speechify. I think this is the perfect use for AI, improving communication and clarity of learning. I hope whoever contributed to the software knows they helped someone with ADHD in ways I have never had accessible before. I used this to listen to hundreds of peer reviewed articles, could quickly make summaries for meetings and discussions, and the follow along reader has helped keep my busy brain engaged and focused. I really cannot stress how much this product has helped my day to day life. I don't think it needs to be AS expensive as it is, but that is in no means to say the service is TOO expensive. The activist and teacher in me wants to see accessibility for learning for all learners, and the possibility Speechify holds in this respect is immense. Thanks a million to all involved, you are doing a great thing! Free Palestine , the Congo, Cuba, Ukraine, and all other places affected by colonialism and imperialism always and forever <3

- Amy Sik
- As a busy, neurodivergent mom, thank you for this app. It allows me to read books I already own while I do other things, like laundry and cooking. I am also learning how to listen better with this app, as well as listen to books faster. The other day, I was listening to the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous as read by Paris Hilton, and it made my day. No, it made my entire month. It's so hilariously relatable and funny, which makes listening enjoyable and helps me feel connected. I couldn't have had that experience without Speechify. Thank you, developers. You've helped give this mom another space to learn and grow from and in.
- Ron Hyde

- Sonya Mcpherson
- Really like it but the constant prompts while I am trying to study across platforms to come here and rate you when I pay for this subscription is a hard NO. It is also buffering constantly on the PDF podcast function. I wouldn't stop using it but if the pop up keep happening on the chrome extent ion I will expecting a discount on the subscription. I pay I don't want ad like features that interrupt me, this is a tool to help learning not distracts from it.
