Right-click any text on any page → hear it read aloud with 400+ AI voices. No setup. No account for the first 3 reads. Free forever for the basics.
Reading is one of the oldest interfaces. Listening is one of the newest. Both ways into the same idea — just routed through different senses.
Works on every site — news, blogs, Substack, GitHub READMEs, Reddit threads, in-browser PDFs.
Highlight a paragraph, right-click → 🔊 Read selection. A floating player drops in with play, pause, scrub, speed, and word-by-word highlight in sync with the voice.
Right-click anywhere → 📖 Read this page. FreeTTS extracts the article body (skipping nav, ads, footers) and queues every sentence so you can listen end-to-end.
Skip the article, listen to the gist. Right-click → ✨ Summarise & read. 3 free summaries to start, then unlimited on PRO. Powered by GPT-4o-mini.
Click 🎭 on the player for a full-screen distraction-free reading view — karaoke word highlighting, breathing background, perfect for long articles.
From narrator-grade English to expressive Japanese, every voice is a neural model. Free tier includes 15 standard voices; PRO unlocks the full HD library.
Faster than the right-click menu. Customise at chrome://extensions/shortcuts if Alt+Shift conflicts.
HD neural voices · 95 expressive styles (cheerful, sad, whispering, excited, & more) · unlimited generations · no audio watermark · background play after closing the tab · full commercial license. Same account works on web, extension, and Android.

No — voices are generated server-side via Microsoft Azure neural TTS, which needs a connection. We cache audio for instant replay though, so paragraphs you've already heard load offline.
The player only injects when you trigger a read. Idle, the extension does nothing — no scripts running, no telemetry pings, no battery drain.
Selected text is sent to FreeTTS's TTS endpoint and discarded after audio is generated. No content is logged or used for training. Full privacy policy.
Yes — right-click any selection → ⬇️ Download selection as MP3. Free tier includes a short audio watermark; PRO removes it.
15 free Edge voices auto-detected by the page's language (English, Spanish, French, German, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, etc.). PRO unlocks 400+ neural HD voices with expressive styles.
Visit chrome://extensions/shortcuts and remap to whatever combo you prefer. Chrome lets you bind to function keys, ctrl-combos, anything.
Speechify charges $29/mo and requires a card up front for the trial. FreeTTS is free for daily use, no card, $19/mo if you want HD voices and unlimited. See the full comparison.
