Text to Speech for Accessibility
Create audio versions of documents, instructions, and web content for people who benefit from listening instead of reading.
Accessibility means making content available to everyone — including people with visual impairments, dyslexia, cognitive disabilities, or situational limitations like driving or multitasking. Text to speech is one of the most direct ways to make written content accessible to more people.
This tool converts any text to natural-sounding speech that can be played in the browser or downloaded as an audio file. Choose from 54 voices to find one that works best for your audience, and audio starts streaming immediately so there's no waiting.

How It Works
Copy the content that needs an audio version — a document, instructions, web page text, or announcement.
Pick a clear voice from the 54 options and generate the audio.
Play the audio right in the browser, or download it as a file.
Distribute the audio file alongside the text content so it's accessible to everyone.
Making Content Accessible with Text to Speech
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) recommend providing content in multiple formats to serve users with different abilities. While screen readers provide on-the-fly text to speech, pre-generated audio has distinct advantages: it can be played on any device without assistive technology, it uses higher-quality voices than most built-in screen readers, and it can be shared as a standalone file.
Common use cases include: creating audio versions of instructional materials for visually impaired users, generating spoken versions of important announcements or policy documents, producing audio descriptions for people with reading disabilities like dyslexia, and making content available to users who prefer listening over reading.
For organizations with accessibility requirements, providing audio alongside text content is one component of a comprehensive accessibility strategy.
