Good stuff

Seeam Noone 2025-10-10

best extension I've used in a long time. works great too. no issues on my end.

david wang 2025-10-09

Is it working rightnow? Last week I got it working all fine...now it stops at loading preview...thank you....

Sean Earl Bacus 2025-10-06

It's so easy to use, doesn't sound too robotic, has no limits in the number of characters, and no limited trials or anything like that. As a student, this greatly helps me with all of my reading materials. The AI isn't accurate at reading large numbers (like 44,500,000) and title abbreviations (like Atty.) however, so it's something you have to personally edit in your text if you want it without mistakes. Would still recommend this to other people.

Samuel Jesus 2025-09-13

It's a great extension! Thank you for letting us use it even if we choose not to pay/can't afford the premium version. I'd like to know if it's possible to update it in the future (if you have access to this feature/option) so that the voices place emphasis on the correct parts of words, as sometimes when using the extension, the voice places too much stress/intonation on certain words in a sentence, making the speech flow a little unnatural.

Sam Ford 2025-09-09

Thanks for this man! Been searching so long for an actual free ai tts

Tony 2025-09-08

Ehhh, it does have potential so I gave it a positive 2 stars for effort however, unless I can highlight text, right click and play, it's useless to me. Let me know when if you ever get to that point. Keep it up.

Ksi Stan 2025-09-08

I've been using this extension for a while now and everything works perfectly fine.

Donald 2025-09-07

scam I already paid for the premium subscription 5 times in September, and you keep charging me money — this is nothing but a scam. Where should I send the proofs? Before trying to insult me, sort out your own payment method. It even says right here in the form that Google doesn’t review these comments. You can write whatever you want here, clowns. What is your contact email?

Nülgin Akkaya 2025-09-07

Please add a feature so the text is followed with the voice, so we dont have to scroll. And changing pitch of voice for downloading and listening would be perfection. Highlighting the read sentences would be beyond perfection! And a quick paste and read button within right click context menu! Thanks! edit: from 5 star to 1 start because there is a 2500 charcter limit! Are you kidding me!! even worst tts has 10k limit. uninstalled.

Isaac Gladstone 2025-09-05

Literally perfect for reading, the subscription is reasonable and is not required but does offer helpful features.

Saleh Hassen 2025-09-01

Reliable extension that's better than Speechify and NaturalReader. Thank you for making this!

Lucila Borgarello 2025-08-21

Great extension for if you can't sit through reading long homework assignments (I used it for Spanish hw, I'm fluent in it but very slow at reading). 10/10. Im so glad i found this in a reddit thread, I had been searching for like 30+ minutes for a free text to speech, and this was exactly what I needed. I also appreciate the no-character limit on the free version and the option for premium features, which I may end up getting later for school assignments. Thanks for this man! :)

Pamela Campbell 2025-08-14

So far, so good! No issues so far, and I love the voices. I also love that it's not expensive. I would definitely recommend it.

Andrew M 2025-08-13

This was a great program, when free. I understand asking for 5.00 a month but after giving it to us for free it feels wrong. I can completely understand if you gave us the option to pay 5.00 for a premium subscription with extra features but to start charging for something that was originally free just doesn't make senses. You said in a previous comment " I have been spent hours (months even) on this project and kept it free. Due to my personal situation, I wanted to get support" You spending hours to do something is a choice you made. And out of the "kindness" of your heart you gave a great program. Now your "kindness" has been effected and the "money" is getting to you. You also said " If u want the entire extension, you can always just take a few weeks/months to code up a similar extension" That is a rude comment to make to that reviewer. You should treat people better. When people see you behaving this way they will not support you or download your product for that matter.

i like it so far i use the voice maple, i would prefer more voices like elven reader especially better Australian or English accent ones because i like those accents and i would prefer a voice similar to maple or Arabella, i also think the British accent voice u have already is pretty bad and sounds similar to someone giving announcements through a speaker at an airport (its probably deterring british customers that are bad at understanding american english so i would add another british more natural sounding voice similar to maples pitch or arabellas)

C-LOS NYC 2025-08-08

Incredible...for a measly 5 dollars, you get something as good as amazon Polly. Beautiful job with the extension and i hope it finds success because this is a life saver. Had to do a bunch of courses and i put them all in audio so i could listen to them while travelling and its marvelous. excellent job, cant say enough good things about it.

Abhijeet Ghule 2025-08-05

Hello democratic developer. How do we make payment ???? I am from India - this Cash app is not working here, and when I tried to use my card, it says Such purchase is not allowed on your card ? your work is great in tts, but keep the download free or make payment for pro easy ? I am stuck !!!!!!!!!!!!! give me a way out buddy, i have shared u my email in feedback. get back to me on it asap. its urgent.

Mau Amolat 2025-07-31

I used it over 2 days, and was about to share it to my community but then it slapped me with a pro subscription. It suddenly removed the voice I used to use for free and wants me to subscribe for a pro version. Removed the extension immediately.

deen 2025-07-29

A little glitchy and needs a lot more options for customization, but has a lot of potential. Good extension.

Felipe Meireles 2025-07-17

Wow, awesome!! Thank you very much for that.

Adam 2025-05-10

Great tool!

UPASANA PANDYA 2025-03-06

This new feature of downloading audio is perfect. Nice work!

Samuel Oyedele 2025-03-05

Edit : 05 March 2025, I want to commend the Developer for his dedication in making sure that everyone using this is satisfied. Indeed he reach out to me repeatedly but the issue is fixed now. In my case, it turns out that I had to make sure that I was logged into chat GPT before it worked. Although clicking the icon does not redirect me as like in the video but it works when I am on Chat GPT's website. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ As of Feb 27 2025, This doesn't not work for me. I saw the comment in Marcelo Hernandez and I did as the developer suggested. It doesn't work still. If I can get a solution to this problem. I will change the review accordingly. It's worth noting that the Icon is greyed out in my extension bar Thanks

לירן בלומנברג 2025-03-05
