Description
Aloud is a native text-to-speech application for macOS that allows users to listen to selected text, PDFs, screenshots, images, and web articles. It has the capability to read selections from various Mac applications, can bypass headers, footers, and page numbers in PDFs, recognizes text from scanned pages and images on-device, and highlights words as they are read aloud. Playback can be managed through a compact floating reader, allowing users to resume previous readings, modify the reading speed, set specific pronunciations, and export audio files in the M4A format. The app includes voices available on macOS along with the optional Kokoro neural voice, which operates locally on compatible Macs. Additionally, users have the option to integrate their own ElevenLabs or Cartesia API keys for accessing cloud voices, though those services may incur separate charges. Aloud caters to Mac users who prefer an auditory experience while engaging with documents, conducting research, writing, or browsing web content. It is compatible with macOS 14 or newer and is available for purchase as a one-time fee. This makes it an ideal solution for those seeking convenience and efficiency in their multitasking endeavors.
