AI Tool Profile
Speechify
Speechify is a text-to-speech and voice AI app that reads text aloud, adds voice typing and makes AI podcasts. The free plan is text-to-speech only; Premium is listed at $29 a month.
Description of Speechify
Speechify is a voice AI productivity product that reads text aloud, supports voice typing, takes notes and creates AI podcasts. Its site says it was founded by Cliff Weitzman, who built it as a text-to-speech tool, and claims more than 60 million users and over 200 staff. Those figures are company claims.
It runs on the web, on iPhone and iPad, on Android, on Mac and Windows, and as Chrome and Edge extensions. There is a text-to-speech API with streaming, SSML, emotional control and speech marks, and the site also advertises voice-over, dubbing and studio voices. The homepage does not mention voice cloning, so check separately if cloning matters to you.
The pricing page lists a Free plan with text-to-speech only, playback up to 1.5x and 10 robotic-sounding voices. Premium is listed at $29 per month and includes 1,000 or more natural voices in over 60 languages, playback up to 5x, Scan and Listen, AI summaries and chat, cloud storage integrations, voice typing, AI podcasts and a voice AI assistant. A monthly and yearly toggle exists and yearly billing is labelled 'save 60%' without a stated yearly price. We treat the $29 figure as medium confidence because the page read did not make its billing basis fully clear.
Speechify Studio, the voiceover and dubbing product, has its own pricing page, which we could not load, so Studio prices are not recorded. A buyer who wants consumer reading features will focus on Premium, while a creator needing voiceovers should check Studio's licence and export terms.
