Vocalize is designed for text-heavy pages where there's something meaningful to read.
News articles, blogs, essays, documentation, Wikipedia pages, newsletters, tutorials, and long-form web content.
App dashboards, social feeds, pages with very little text, heavily interactive pages, or sites that block browser extensions.
Vocalize reads virtually any text-based page — news, blogs, docs, Wikipedia, and more. A handful of app-style pages with little real text aren't a fit, and you can exclude any site you don't want it on.
Just the article. Smart content detection identifies the main content and skips navigation, ads, cookie banners, and comments, so you hear only what you came to read.
Hundreds of natural neural voices across 70+ languages. Choose a different narrator per language, and adjust speed anywhere from 0.5× to 2×.
Vocalize doesn't track your browsing history or sell your data. When you choose to generate audio or a summary, only the selected page text is sent to our servers to create the voice or summary.
