What is Text to Speech?
This text-to-speech tool uses the Web Speech API (SpeechSynthesis) built into modern browsers. Enter text, select a voice, adjust the speaking rate and pitch, and click Speak to hear it read aloud.
Available voices depend on your operating system and browser. Most systems include multiple voices in different languages and accents.
FAQ
- Does it work offline?
- Yes — most browsers use system-level speech synthesis that works without an internet connection. Some voices may require online processing.
- Can I download the audio?
- The Web Speech API plays audio directly but doesn't generate downloadable files. For downloadable audio, you'd need a server-side TTS service.
