️ What does this tool offer? ✏ Speechify is the world's leading text-to-speech (TTS) platform using the latest AI technology. The tool aims to increase reading speed and productivity by converting any written content (articles, PDFs, paper books, or emails) into studio-quality audio content. The platform is characterized by its very natural human voices, its ability to summarize long documents, and its provision of assistive tools for people with dyslexia or those who prefer auditory learning.

What does it actually offer based on user experience? ⭐ In practice, users consider it "the most powerful tool for those who want to finish a book in one sitting," as its high reading speeds (up to 5x) allow tasks to be completed in record time. Actual experience indicates its superiority in the accuracy of "scanning" paper books. However, there are still complaints about the high annual subscription cost, and users are always advised to cancel the trial period 24 hours before it ends to avoid automatic billing.
