Speak Text is a Chrome extension developed by Start Media that allows users to convert selected text into speech. This handy extension can be used on any website, enabling users to simply select words or paragraphs and listen to them being read aloud. Additionally, from the new tab page, users can paste text into the provided field and either listen to it or search for the selected text.

One of the standout features of Speak Text is its TTS SpeechEngine, which utilizes human-quality text-to-speech technology to deliver natural and clear speech. Users also have the ability to stop ongoing speech with the click of a button. The extension can be easily enabled or disabled at any time, providing users with full control over its functionality.

Best of all, Speak Text is completely free to use, making it a convenient and accessible tool for anyone. The speech quality is impressive, offering a similarity to the human voice that is both understandable and enjoyable.
