Features & Capabilities

Article Audio is a read-aloud Firefox extension powered by text-to-speech (TTS) AI voices. Read articles aloud and listen to documents, emails, and webpages.

Many text-to-speech tools sound robotic and unnatural. Article Audio uses modern AI voice models with natural pacing, intonation, and expression.

  1. Select text on a webpage
  2. Press Shift+Tab
  3. Listen with the floating audio player
Just select and listen.

ArticleAudio adds convenient listen buttons directly inside supported sites, so you can hear content without manually selecting text.

  • X / Twitter: Listen to posts, threads, and X article pages from the native action bar.
  • Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini: Listen to AI responses using a compact Article Audio play button near the response actions.

Choose from six distinct voices, including energetic, warm, deep, expressive, and soft options. The text-to-speech engine handles punctuation, emphasis, and pacing naturally.

  • Skip forward or backward
  • Adjust playback speed from 0.5× to 2×
