About Speechify
Speechify was founded by Andrew Yousef, who developed the app to help himself cope with dyslexia while at Harvard. Today it has over 20 million users and is the #1 text-to-speech app in the App Store.
The app converts any written content — from academic papers and legal documents to news articles and WhatsApp messages — into high-quality audio narrated by AI voices. Users can listen at up to 4.5x speed, a technique backed by research on auditory learning.
Speechify is used by students, executives, lawyers, and anyone who wants to consume more content in less time. Its accessibility features make it an essential tool for users with dyslexia, ADHD, or visual impairments.
