AI Text-to-Speech and Speech-to-Text for Chrome
GPT Reader & Transcriber is a Chrome extension (also available for Firefox and Edge) that works as both an AI reader and a transcriber. Use it as a text-to-speech Chrome extension to hear articles, PDFs, and your own text with natural voices—or switch to speech-to-text for dictation, voice typing, and audio transcription when you need accurate text output fast.
The same tool supports listening with ChatGPT text-to-speech-style quality and productive ChatGPT speech-to-text workflows, so you are not choosing between "read aloud" and "write by voice"—you get both in one lightweight browser experience.
