Assuming that the average word is five characters long, ReadSpeaker has converted around two hundred billion words into lifelike, AI-powered voice - supporting more than 12,000 customers as they reach wider, more diverse audiences with their content across websites, games, public transport, apps, virtual learning environments, and more.

In the 25 years since ReadSpeaker launched, globalization has increased the need for language translation for non-native speakers. In 2024, ReadSpeaker users made an average of 500,000 translation requests per month, making use of the 50+ languages available. With innovation at the heart of everything ReadSpeaker does, new voices, indigenous languages, and dialects are continuously developed, while also working alongside customers to create bespoke solutions and custom voices.

Awareness has also grown about the importance of accessibility, with many countries and regions passing legislation that places the responsibility of making content inclusive on organizations and brands. Working alongside accessibility experts, ReadSpeaker builds solutions that enhance the usability of digital spaces for all people.

Whether customers need custom voices to communicate their unique brand identity in the voice space; learning tools within their LMS; online content reading solutions to improve website usability; offline dynamic narration for game accessibility; passenger announcements; or assistive technology for personal use, ReadSpeaker has been a constant for over 25 years.

Other mainstays have been the innovative customers and strong partnerships with organizations that share a commitment to an excellent user experience, engagement, accessibility, inclusion, and branded voice experiences across all sectors, such as Sonos, Corriere della Sera, the French government administration, Moodle, D2L, Blackboard, and Canvas.

Roy Lindemann, CMO and Co-Founder of ReadSpeaker, said, "There is so much to be proud of over the past 25 years of ReadSpeaker, but what stands out to me is our experienced team full of innovative ideas, boundless energy, and endless enthusiasm to take us into the next 25 years. We are also fortunate to work alongside amazing partners and customers who share our goal of enhancing customer engagement with text to speech. Together, we're committed to continue making a positive impact by increasing accessibility and continuously improving our technology to deliver the best possible voices and tools."
