What Exactly is Speechify?

Here’s the simplest way to explain it: Speechify is like having someone read everything to you. Emails? Check. Textbooks? Absolutely. Even those boring work reports? You bet.

Key things it does:

  • Converts text to speech in seconds

  • Works on PDFs, web articles, even images of text

  • Lets you speed up to 900 words per minute (crazy fast!)

Who’s This Actually Good For?

I’ll be honest – it’s not for everyone. But these folks love it:

  1. Students – Listen to textbooks while walking to class

  2. Professionals – Get through reports during your commute

  3. People with dyslexia – Makes reading way easier

  4. Language learners – Hear proper pronunciation

If you spend more than 5 hours a week reading, this could save you serious time.

The Features Worth Knowing About

✅ Celebrity voices – Including Snoop Dogg (yes, really)

✅ 900 WPM speed – For when you need to cram fast

✅ Works offline – Great for planes or subway rides

✅ Syncs across devices – Start on phone, finish on laptop

Downsides?

  • Free version is pretty limited

  • Some voices sound robotic at high speeds
