Ethically-sourced voice AI for screenwriters on a budget
The only other option is the pricey but beautiful WellSaid, but it doesn’t recognize screenplays and is cumbersome. Tableread Pro is the only option that ticks every box: ethical, workable, economic.
My only complaint with Tableread is that you cannot turn off autoplay. I assume this is because most people use it to rehearse lines so it’s designed to keep going. I’m a screenwriter, though, so I just want to hear my screenplay read aloud because it helps the writing process.
Overall, it’s a great little app. Would love to see a desktop version that has more options for writers like me, but that’s ok.

Thanks Ducktemp If you would like to contact us at tablereaddeveloper@gmail.com and we can look at adding an auto-play setting for you. Just need to know which auto-play you are referring to.
Much better
Wasn’t diverse at all with the voices
Waste of money.

Hello CMurrayReiman Please contact us at tablereaddeveloper@gmail.com. The setting you are referring to is not available before the pro version is enabled. So we do not know how you are ale to click on something that is not there in the free version. If you have just purchased pro, then you are still in the free trial, so you have not wasted your money if you cancel the subscription now. Please google "How do i cancel an Apple subscription" if you do not know how to do this.
Bummer

Hello Brutal postman We've just released an update that should fix Apple CarPlay. The previous update also addressed the bug where pages were being read out of order. Please, please contact us at tablereaddeveloper@gmail.com if you are still experiencing these issues.
Is this a joke?
UPDATE: It wasn't clear that the free version used the voice applied to a setting on the iPhone, and not a voice chosen in the app.

Hey Mbublitz There is a trial period if you want to check out PRO. You can subscribe /activate it (free trial is a week) and then immediately cancel the subscription so it doesn't roll over and charge you. Other wise it's $2.99 (USD) a month. We license the voices, so we can't offer them in the FREE mode We'll probably be offering a month free trial soon as a special offer around the Easter period, if you'd like to wait. Or contact us at tablereaddeveloper@gmail.com and we can help you in other secret ways :)
