Listening rather than producing.
Speechify reads documents\, articles\, PDFs and email aloud at up to five times normal speed\, across browser\, phone and desktop.
Most voice tools exist to generate audio for an audience; this one exists so you can consume more yourself. It has a real accessibility case for dyslexia and visual impairment\, and the free tier is limited to robotic voices — the natural ones are the upgrade.
