What Speechify Voice AI does

Speechify Voice AI is a Windows Microsoft Store app from Speechify that combines text-to-speech reading with voice typing. Users can open a PDF or text file, paste in text or dictate directly into another app; the software reads content aloud with adjustable playback speed and turns spoken input into typed text inside whichever program has focus.

Core capabilities

More than 1,000 natural-sounding voices across 60-plus languages
On-device processing mode so the voice data stays on the computer, plus a cloud mode for the wider voice library
Voice dictation into Outlook, Word, Slack, Notion, Chrome and other apps already installed on the PC
Adjustable playback speed for faster review of long documents

Availability and pricing

The app is a free download on the Microsoft Store and is available for x64 and Arm64 Windows devices. Advanced voices and pro features on the wider Speechify platform are gated by paid tiers, so the free store install should be treated as an entry point. Current subscription prices and voice quotas are listed on the official Speechify pricing page.

NiceVoice

NiceVoice is an AI voice synthesis platform that leans towards being "creator-friendly," with an overall experience that focuses more on whether the generated results are natural and pleasant to listen to, rather than piling up complex settings. From a usability perspective, it does not require users to understand voice models or parameter structures. Users only need to organize the text content properly to quickly obtain relatively stable voiceover results, making it suitable for scenarios where frequent generation of voice content is required.
