Rediscover the Joy of Reading with Read-this.ai

Do you constantly feel like you should read more substantive content, but can never find the time or focus? Are you tired of wasting time on empty social media instead of enriching your mind?

The Read-this.ai Chrome extension turns any online article into an immersive audio experience with just one click. Our AI assistant instantly converts text into natural, human-quality narrations so you can absorb more content hands-free.

Listen to long-form articles during your commute, workout, or while plowing through emails. Rediscover the joy of reading without the eye strain.

I built Read-this.ai out of frustration with robotic text-to-speech services. Our smooth narrations bring the written word to life and let you get lost in the content.


Using Read-this.ai is effortless and intuitive, designed to fit seamlessly into your web browsing routine:

- Simply hold \"r\" + \"t\" (as in 'read this') on any web page. Our smart reader will instantly read the entire page or the text you've selected, bringing the content to life with high-quality voice narration.

- Right-click on any page or selected text. Our extension will then read the whole article or just the selected text, based on your preference. This feature is perfect for when you need a quick summary or specific information from a lengthy article.

- Or just click on the Read-this.ai extension icon. It will activate the speech synthesis for the entire page, transforming the text into an audio format. Whether it’s long-form articles, blog posts, etc,


With Read-this.ai, the convenience extends beyond your browser. Every piece of audio generated by our Text-To-Speech Chrome Extension can be effortlessly downloaded through our website. This feature allows you to save narrations for later, making it perfect for offline listening or archiving important articles.

But that's not all – for an even more versatile experience, take your audio narrations on the go with our dedicated iOS and Android apps. Whether you're commuting, exercising, or just relaxing, our apps ensure that your favorite articles are always just a tap away. Listen to high-quality voice narrations anytime, anywhere, bringing a new level of flexibility to your content consumption.

Embrace the future of web interaction with Read-this.ai. From seamless integration in your Chrome browser to portable audio access across devices, we're redefining the way you experience the web – one article at a time.
