The problem

We've all become savers, not readers.

Tabs stacked, articles bookmarked, newsletters piling up in your inbox, and almost none of it actually read. Meanwhile we spend hours a day on commutes, runs, and chores, ears free, eyes busy, hands busy.

Existing options don't fit. Audiobook apps only carry their own catalog, not the piece a friend just sent. System read-aloud is robotic and reads ads and cookie banners. News apps rarely offer audio at all.

Your eyes are busy. Your hands are busy. Your ears aren't.

How it works

From saved-for-later to listening.

Share to ReadME

Found an article on Safari, Chrome, or X? Hit share and tap the ReadME icon. It lands straight in your queue.

Instant narration

ReadME analyzes the article and produces a natural-sounding narration in seconds. No waiting, no re-uploading.

Listen anywhere

Plug in your AirPods and turn your drive, run, or walk into a productive listening session.

Features

Built for the commute, not the desk.

Natural voices

A range of natural-sounding voices tuned for long-form listening. Adjust the speed without losing clarity.

Any article on the open web

Paste a link to a free article from a blog, newsletter, or news site. We handle the parsing, you press play.

Tune the pace

Speed up dense pieces, slow down what you want to savour. Adjust playback from 0.75× to 2× without losing clarity.

Clean narration, no clutter

Ads, cookie banners, and navigation menus are stripped automatically. You hear the article, not the website.

Library and queue

Save articles for later, queue them up, pick up exactly where you left off. Your reading list, finally listened to.

Lock screen and AirPods

Play, pause, skip from the lock screen, your AirPods, or your car stereo. Hands-free, eyes-free, friction-free.
