Chaduvu - TTS Reader

About

Chaduvu is a web text-to-speech reader that turns long web pages into a smooth listening experience. It is built for articles, blogs, documentation, and web novels, helping you read hands-free while working, relaxing, commuting, or multitasking.

Start playback from the popup, floating page button, right-click menu, or keyboard shortcut. Chaduvu reads the visible page content aloud, highlights the current sentence, and lets you pause, resume, stop, skip sentences, or move between pages and chapters.

Key features:

- Read web pages aloud with selectable TTS voices
- Adjust playback speed from slow to fast
- Highlight and auto-scroll the currently spoken sentence
- Jump to the next or previous sentence
- Navigate to next or previous pages/chapters
- Automatically continue reading across supported multi-page content
- Choose exactly which page elements should be read
- Pick title, content, next, and previous page elements visually
- Replace text before speech, including regex-based replacements
- Favorite voices for faster selection
- Set a sleep timer to pause playback automatically
- Import and export per-site reading settings
- Use keyboard shortcuts for quick playback control

Default keyboard shortcuts:

- Alt + A: Play, pause, or resume reading the active tab
- Ctrl + Period: Stop audio playback
- 1 to 9: Seek forward by 1 to 9 sentence steps while page playback controls are active
- Shift + 1 to Shift + 9: Seek backward by 1 to 9 sentence steps while page playback controls are active
- Play Next Page: Available as a Chrome extension shortcut that can be assigned manually
- Play Previous Page: Available as a Chrome extension shortcut that can be assigned manually

Chaduvu is especially useful for long-form reading, web novels, serialized stories, documentation, and any page where you want focused audio playback instead of manual reading.
