What We Do

  • Turn academic papers into plain English you can actually follow

  • Clarify legal contracts, insurance policies, terms of service

  • Translate foreign-language documents into fluent English

  • Preserve every argument, every nuance—50K words in, 50K words out

  • Let you preview any voice before paying (multiple TTS engines)

✕

What We Don't Do

  • Summarize (ChatGPT already does that—and loses 95% of the content)

  • Recommend what to read (you know what you want)

  • Build reading streaks or gamification (you're not 12)

  • Require an account to try it (upload → preview → decide)

  • Hide pricing behind 'contact sales' (it's $12/month + TTS at cost)

Our approach

How it works

01

Format Is the Barrier

The content is valuable. The jargon, legalese, or technical language isn't. We clarify the format so you can focus on what matters.

02

Open Access + Your Own

arXiv has 2M+ research papers. PubMed Central has millions more. Plus any document you have rights to.

03

No Account to Try

Upload a file, preview voices, see your cost estimate. Create an account only when you're ready to pay.

04

$12/month + TTS at cost

Platform fee covers servers. TTS cost passed through at cost. You see the exact calculation before you pay.

FOR YOU

Our users

Who this is for

People who want the source—not someone else's interpretation.

You've got the Federalist Papers sitting in your Gutenberg folder. Kant's Critique has been on your list for three years. That 50-page bioRxiv paper keeps getting pushed to "next weekend."

The problem isn't motivation. You want to read the source. But sitting down with 18th-century prose is exhausting. Dense academic jargon demands full attention. And when you finally have time—on your commute, during walks, at the gym—your eyes are busy.

So the book stays on the list. Another year passes. You end up reading about Adam Smith instead of reading Adam Smith.

We translate the language. The ideas stay hard. And now you can listen.
