Sit back and listen !

Speechissimo is a precious and charming companion for your computer, kind of like Tinkerbell is for Peter Pan!

Horoscopes, weather bulletins, latest news or full articles, e-mails, meeting notes or work documents... Speechissimo quietly sits in the corner of your screen, waiting for a sign to read any written information out loud for you with an intelligent and natural sounding voice.

Just listen, you won't believe your ears !

Speechissimo literally converts any written text into speech using an extremely high quality text to speech technology, capable of transforming any type of information in real-time as flexibly as the human voice would do.

Speechissimo can speak several languages, it's up to you to choose the one(s) you want ! Speechissimo can now speak English, French, German and Spanish and is learning new ones all the time to satisfy its desire to read everything about anything.

Speechissimo is installed in a wink, in your chosen language. Just one click and it will sit in the corner of your screen, waiting to assist you whenever you need it. Select the piece of text you're interested in, copy it and press play, or drag and drop onto Speechissimo, and you can sit back and listen !
