    Frequently Asked Questions

    Which voices are available?

    The tool uses your browser's built-in speech synthesis voices. The number and quality of voices depends on your operating system and browser. Most systems offer 10–50+ voices in multiple languages.

    Can I use this tool if I am blind?

    Yes. The tool is designed with accessibility in mind: full keyboard navigation, ARIA labels on all controls, screen reader announcements for state changes, and high-contrast UI. You can operate every feature without a mouse.
