What is Audioread?
Audioread is an AI text‑to‑speech platform that converts articles, emails, PDFs, URLs, plain text, and RSS feeds into natural‑sounding audio files. It offers multilingual support with over 80 languages and adjustable playback speed, and delivers MP3 downloads for offline listening.
Users can stream content via a private RSS feed compatible with Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and any podcast player, enabling cross‑device listening. Built‑in AI summaries preview key points before playback, while a privacy mode automatically deletes content after 30 days and disables tracking.
The service is accessed through a web app, Chrome/Edge/Brave/Safari extensions, iOS shortcuts, and an Android PWA, and integrates with Slack to summarize conversations and schedule channel digests. Audioread’s REST API allows developers to programmatically convert text to audio and generate custom podcast feeds.
