01The context

Proofreading emails, an article or a contract with tired eyes: we wanted a tool that reads any text, in any app, without copy-paste.

02What we built

  • An Electron/TypeScript desktop app with a global shortcut that reads the selection in any app.
  • Natural voices through xAI's speech APIs, on-screen captions and a choice of voice.
  • A native macOS selection helper; Windows builds (installer and portable).
  • A product site with Free and Pro plans.

03Outcome

  • In public preview, free to start.
