Lyvren: free text to speech with natural voices

Lyvren reads your words aloud in natural, human-sounding voices. Paste or type a text, open a PDF, Word document or ebook, or bring in a web article, then press Play. Each word lights up as it’s spoken.

It’s free, with no account, no ads and nothing to sign up for. And it’s private: the voices run inside your own browser, so your text never leaves your device.
