GrayTTS: Free TTS Chrome Extension with Multiple Voices
GrayTTS is a free, simple, and straightforward TTS (Text-to-Speech) Chrome extension developed by graysonchalmers. Designed to enhance productivity, this beta version 1.0 release offers multiple voices, a right-click menu, and a hotkey trigger.
With GrayTTS, users can easily select any text and have it read aloud. The extension aims to provide a convenient solution for reading emails and work documentation, catering to those who prefer auditory information consumption.
While the interface may not be aesthetically pleasing and the developer admits to having limited programming experience, GrayTTS offers a functional TTS solution. However, it should be noted that the extension has not undergone comprehensive QA testing, so its performance may vary.
The developer plans to incorporate additional features in future updates, such as a pause and stop button, allowing users to halt ongoing readings. Moreover, a customizable hotkey option is also on the roadmap.
Feedback is encouraged and the developer intends to share the code on GitHub for further improvement and community contributions. GrayTTS may not be perfect, but it serves its purpose and provides a valuable TTS solution for Chrome users.
