About the job
The mission of Speechify is to ensure that reading is never a barrier to learning.
With over 50 million users, Speechify’s innovative text-to-speech products transform any reading material—be it PDFs, books, Google Docs, news articles, or websites—into engaging audio. This enables users to read faster, absorb more information, and remember better. Our range of products includes an iOS app, Android app, Mac app, Chrome extension, and web app. Recently, Google recognized Speechify as the Chrome Extension of the Year, while Apple named it App of the Day.
