Audioread

Convert any article, PDF, or email to natural-sounding audio. Listen in the Audioread app or Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and more. Start free

Audioread turns articles, PDFs, emails, and RSS feeds into spoken audio with natural-sounding AI voices for people who would rather listen than read. You can paste a URL, upload a file, forward a newsletter to a private Audioread inbox, or subscribe to a blog feed, and the service generates speech and adds it to your playlist. Supported inputs include web articles, PDFs, DOCX files, and plain text, plus RSS and Atom feeds so that new posts convert automatically.

The audio can be streamed in the browser, played in the Audioread app, or synced to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast players. The site frames it as a productivity-focused text-to-speech service that turns a reading backlog into a private podcast feed, and it sits in the Education category here alongside the accessibility and learning use cases the site describes. There are nearly 1,000 AI voices to choose from.

According to the site, Audioread is free to start, though the inputs do not detail any paid plans. Try pasting one article link to hear how a voice sounds before forwarding your newsletters.
