- Tyler Barnes
- it's good.
- Tasha Sparks
- It's so cool. I love using this to read to me and I get distracted way less and I don't have to stare at a screen.
- Shawn
- This is so easy to use. I just wish I had more voices to play with. But it works GREAT!!!!
- Graham dePenros
- I find Speechify indispensable. Providing productivity gains by giving me the ability to turn everything into text-to-speech means I can cover more opinion pieces, research papers, books, and so on on the go, which I wouldn't have been able to do before I subscribed. The interface and controls provide a superior UX/UI than competitors.

- I don't like it, it's disturbing my privacy and it won't go away.

- Speechify AI Assistant's reply to me asking it to read a webpage: "I can't read pages directly, but if you share the text or key points from the page, I can help summarize, explain, or answer any questions you have about it!" So y'all just lied, huh?
- Valinteshley Pierre
- Great extension. Helps me to focus when there are long texts on the page.
- Micah Voraritskul
- As someone who loves non-fiction and audio, Speechify is a godsend. I have it read my emails, and long prose that hits my screen, and I love it! What an impressive display of technology and the fact that Gwenneth Paltrow and others have officially licensed their voices (kudos for pivoting and not just fighting tech), I approve all the more. And it's sweet to have Snoop Dog read my emails. "Get that on the calenda, fool."

- Speechify has robust AI's readers and has good versatility, its great if need something to read to you , especially if your a student. Still things are not perfect, its heavy program and slows my desk top when on google docs. The app on my phone and iPad crashes sometimes. Cloning your voice is cool but, it doesn't entirely sound like you. AI voices are cool and great for reading but not good for much else. Wish there were more voices too of like fictional charters. I understand there is already on other websites but speechify seems to do it professionally. Also I wish there more plains to pay for service, like 6 mouth or 3 mouths not for hole year. I don't appreciate paying into a yearly plain. This a scummy way of using subscription services. It done in order for you to forget about and if your not using the service they atomically charge you even when you don't need it anymore. This bad business. Don't get me wrong the rates are good, but make more options. This a good business will do. - Improve on optimization - Make more fun voices - Make 1, 3, 6 mouthily plains.

- great for those suffering from ADHD who cant find the drive to read without getting lost in the words.
- shina sharma
- Love it, the only limitation is it works on the webpages. It should be working on the text documents like Docs and PDFs, too. bcz sometimes the Read Aloud function is not working properly. This additional download should be worth keeping for all types of text files too. All the best, team! Thank you!
- laura Coleman
- robotic voice is annoying as i cant afford to pay a subscription as a student but with the long PDF files i am required to read i quickly lose focus until I can read along with a voice reading to me is great for keeping my focus and i find that i am getting through work a lot quicker
- Red Emano
- love it. i used to see this in facebook but decided not to consider at first because their ads were not convincing or seem, 'fake' . lol but i realized it might help in law studies here in the Philippines. so tried it out and wow this is amazing. i used to use microsoft edge in reading, but their app is a lot better. voices sound a lot nicer. and experience seems smoother.... but just that it is expensive a bit?hope you can give educational discount or adjust it to be more philippine and student friendly! thanks! it helps!
- Dmitri and Katya Naiman
- I use a free account for now. Even though the robotic voice is irritating, this software helps me get through my readings of online sources and allows uploads of PDFs. Sometimes, I also take pictures of a books and the program reads them for me. It is great for my university studies.
- Julia K
