Every article, also by ear

Not everyone reads a page the way it was written. Some readers can’t see it well, some find long text hard going, and some simply have their hands and eyes busy. An audio version gives all of them another way into your writing, and the read-along player keeps the text and the voice together.

Who audio helps

The World Health Organization estimates that at least 2.2 billion people have a near or distance vision impairment. They’re not the only ones who benefit.

  • People with low vision, who can listen instead of zooming and squinting
  • Readers with dyslexia and other reading difficulties
  • People with ADHD, who often find it easier to stay with an article they can hear
  • Readers whose first language is a different one, who can hear how it’s said
  • Older readers, for whom long text on a screen gets tiring
  • Anyone with a migraine, eye strain, or a temporary injury
  • People commuting, cooking or walking, who would otherwise skip the article

Listening and reading, together

Many readers do best when they hear and see the words at the same time. The Voxi.fm player highlights each word on your page as it’s spoken, so listeners can follow along, find their place again after looking away, and tap a word to jump the audio there.

Listeners can slow the voice down or speed it up, and pick another voice if you offer more than one. The player’s controls are labelled buttons that work with a keyboard and screen reader.

A voice worth listening to

Built-in screen readers and browser read-aloud are essential tools, but their voices are made for getting through a page fast, not for listening to a 2,000-word feature. Voxi.fm voices sound natural, with pauses after headings and between paragraphs, so a long piece is pleasant to hear from start to finish.

And they read more than English: over 45 languages, so readers of every edition of your site get the same option.

Why audio is winning the attention war

Online audio consumption has reached record heights. According to Edison Research, over 80% of Americans listen to digital audio monthly, and 135 million engage with spoken-word audio every single day.

This surge is driven by audiences who prefer consuming content on the go. With younger demographics doubling their listening time recently, integrating natural AI audio like this into your articles ensures you reach your readers wherever they are.

No extra work for your team

  • Paste a link or the text, choose a voice, and the audio is ready in minutes
  • Add the player to your page with one line of HTML
  • Or let an AI agent generate audio for every new post through the MCP server

One credit per article

Long features cost the same as short news pieces, so there’s no reason to leave any article without audio. Start with five free articles.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does adding audio make my site WCAG or EAA compliant?

No, not on its own. Accessibility standards like WCAG and the European Accessibility Act are about how the whole site works: text alternatives, keyboard navigation, contrast, structure. Audio versions of your articles are an addition on top of that, not a replacement for it. They make your writing easier to take in for many more people, which is what the standards are ultimately for.

Do screen reader users need article audio?

Many already have a screen reader and are fast with it, and that’s fine. Article audio is for everyone else: people with low vision, dyslexia or reading fatigue who don’t use assistive technology, and screen reader users who’d sometimes rather hear an article read in a natural voice than a synthetic one at speed.

Can listeners use the player with a keyboard or screen reader?

Yes. The player’s controls are real buttons with labels, the progress bar is announced as a slider with the current time, and the voice and speed choices are labelled menus.

Which languages are supported?

More than 45. The Universal voices detect the language of the text, so the same voice can read your English, Spanish and Swedish articles.

What does it cost?

One credit per article, whatever its length. New accounts get 5 free credits, and paid plans start at 5 articles a month.
