SpeakMe is an intelligent text-to-speech audio-reader that turns your reading material into interactive audiobooks so that you can save time, retain more information, and stay focused. Like your own personal reading assistant, SpeakMe can read books, documents, and articles while you cook, work out, commute, or any other activity you can think of.

What you can do with SpeakMe:
• Listen to articles, PDFs, digital text, or physical books AS AUDIO.
• Listen with HD voices and 50+ languages.
• Toggle your reading speed up to 900 words per minute (~5x faster than sight-reading)!

LISTEN TO ANY TEXT, ANYWHERE:
• Import online articles, PDFs, clipboard-copied text, or even photos of physical book pages, and listen while SpeakMe reads your content to you in the highest quality digital voices available anywhere.

PERSONALIZE YOUR LISTENING EXPERIENCE:
• Listen to your content with any of SpeakMe's HD voices or 50+ supported languages, and find the perfect reading speed that works for you. Read along with SpeakMe's interactive reading interface, or simply lay back and listen!

SAVE TIME, RETAIN MORE, GET MORE DONE:
• While the average sight-reading speed is approximately 200 words per minute, SpeakMe users quickly learn to listen to 400 words per minute or faster, doubling their reading speed. SpeakMe's reading screen highlights each word as it reads, and academic research shows that listening and reading at the same time results in significantly higher levels of comprehension.

We created SpeakMe so that reading is never a barrier for anyone again. Designed to help people with dyslexia, ADHD, Low vision acuity, concussions, and other reading disabilities, SpeakMe now helps hundreds of thousands of people to consume their reading content with ease. From those with reading disabilities to auditory learners, productivity fanatics, second language learners, hobbyists, and more, we love all of our users and strive every day to create a reading assistant that empowers them to read more and succeed in life. We can't wait for you to join the family :)

### 1/5 — Scam

*2024-01-13*

I thought i was signing up for 3days trial but they scammed me to purchase 1 year plan. Not enough options to transfer the book i need to the app. I couldn’t use it. Total scam!! Waste of money

### 1/5 — This only got one star cause I couldn’t give it Zero!

*2022-10-20*

Don’t waste ur time!

### 1/5 — Can’t read anything with a copyright

*2021-10-10*

It makes sense but it said it could read textbooks. It can’t because they all have a copyright. I spent a long time copying the text just to have it cut it all off saying it had a copyright. It could have advertised “read textbook excerpts”. They obviously wanted more downloads.

### 1/5 — Overcharge

*2021-09-30*

I would have been more than happy to pay for a years subscription but it kept trying to charge me $59. I tried 3 times then decided it wasn’t worth the hassle.

### 5/5 — Fine! Works!

*2021-09-08, version 1.6*

Easy, everything is clear, very simple, no problems.! You copy the text, paste it into the window and go. Thanks to the developers, I'll try further

### 5/5 — Very nice and handy application

*2021-09-08, version 1.6*

5 stars because it helps me to record voice for video, the application is convenient, easy to use, and I advise you :)

### 5/5 — Loud, clear, distinct, expressive

*2021-09-08, version 1.6*

Very cool application! I downloaded it from poor eyesight when I can't read some text? Then I copy and paste into this application and she reads

### 5/5 — It’s great!

*2021-09-06*

I’ve had it for what 10 minutes and all my homework is done. Thankyou!
