About Speechify
Speechify is a text-to-speech reading and voice productivity application for people who prefer listening to articles, PDFs, books and work documents rather than silently reading. Its consumer Reader is offered through web access, mobile applications and browser extensions; the vendor advertises integrations with Google Drive, Dropbox and OneDrive on Premium. A free plan includes basic robotic voices with speeds up to 1.5x, while the US-oriented premium pricing page advertises $29/month billed monthly for over a thousand voices, more than sixty languages and faster playback up to 5x. Premium also combines scanning/listening, AI chat and summaries, voice typing and instant AI podcasts on the current price card. Be careful to distinguish the consumer text-to-speech reader from Speechify Studio, its separate AI voice-over product, and Speechify API. Annual plan discounts are mentioned but the exact checkout annual price was not directly available in the opened pricing page, so this staging record does not assign a numerical annual rate. Speechify terms describe an optional three-day free trial (or another stated length), automatic paid conversion unless cancelled, no prorated refunds and app-store-specific billing rules. Capterra displays a Speechify Text to Speech score but its description emphasizes the API, creating a product-scope ambiguity. G2 has a Speechify Text to Speech listing with no reviews, while Speechify Studio G2 reviews must not be transferred to the reader. The potential accessibility and productivity benefits are grounded in the vendor description and a small set of independent opinions, not Toolbaaz accessibility testing.
Best for
Students and professionals who listen to articles, study PDFs or documents and want portable read-aloud, language and speed controls; poor fit for buyer needing an included commercial voice-over license, unrestricted audiobook rights or an offline/perpetual one-time purchase.

Pricing at a glance
USD $0 basic Text-to-Speech Reader. Vendor advertises 10 robotic-sounding voices, reading speeds up to 1.5x and basic text-to-speech only. Subject to usage and platform restrictions in terms.
US$29/month, billed monthly per vendor live pricing page. Current marketing promises 1,000+ voices, 60+ languages, 5x listening, scan & listen, AI summaries and chat, and Google Drive/Dropbox/OneDrive. The annual billing tab advertises savings but no exact annual checkout rate was directly retrieved; numeric annual equivalent is intentionally null.
Speechify terms describe an introductory trial, currently three days unless differently stated at signup. It automatically becomes a paid subscription unless cancelled before end; exact trial eligibility, price and platform may vary. Not a universally guaranteed free trial for every user.
