About Text to Speech
What is a Text to Speech (TTS) Tool?
A Text to Speech tool converts written text into spoken audio. It is a powerful accessibility and productivity feature that allows you to listen to articles, proofread your own writing, or practice pronunciation in different languages.
How it Works (Privacy First)
Unlike many online TTS tools that upload your text to a cloud server (like Amazon Polly or Google Cloud), our tool uses the Web Speech API built directly into your browser.
- 100% Private: Your text never leaves your device.
- No Limits: There are no character limits or paywalls.
- Instant: Audio generation happens immediately in the browser.
Key Features
- Voice Selection: Choose from a variety of voices and accents provided by your operating system.
- Speed Control: Adjust the reading rate from 0.1x (very slow) to 2.0x (very fast).
- Pitch Control: Change the pitch to make the voice deeper or higher.
- Volume Control: Adjust the output volume independently of your system volume.
Why do voices vary between devices?
Because this tool uses the voices built into your device, the options will look different depending on whether you are using Windows, macOS, iOS, or Android. For the best experience, we recommend using Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge, as they provide high-quality cloud-enhanced voices by default.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this tool completely free and private?
Yes! The tool uses your browser's built-in Web Speech API. This means the speech synthesis happens locally on your device, and your text is never uploaded to any external server.
Why do I see different voices on different devices?
The available voices depend on your operating system (Windows, macOS, iOS, Android) and your browser. Safari, Chrome, and Edge each provide their own set of high-quality voice packs.
