Common ways this tool gets used

  • Paste an article intro and compare silent reading against spoken delivery

How to use this tool well

  • Reading time and spoken time are not the same, so this page keeps both in view.
  • Narration pace plus pause allowance is the better guide for voiceover, audiobook, and host-read delivery.
