Voxlight

About

Voxlight turns any web page into an audiobook — with a bouncing-ball highlight that follows the words as they're spoken.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Select any text on a page
2. Right-click → "🔊 Read aloud with Voxlight" (or press Alt+Shift+S)
3. Listen — the current word lights up and already-read text stays tinted, so your eyes never lose the place

FEATURES
• Follow-along highlight — word-by-word, like karaoke for reading
• Auto-scroll keeps the spoken text in view
• Floating pause / resume / stop control (Esc also stops)
• Choose any system voice, adjust speed and pitch
• Works on articles, docs, emails — anywhere you can select text

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• 100% on-device: speech is generated by your browser's built-in engine
• Selected text NEVER leaves your computer
• No accounts, no analytics, no tracking, no ads
• Works offline with local voices

WHY VOXLIGHT
Perfect for proofreading your own writing, resting your eyes on long reads, language learning (see + hear simultaneously), and accessibility.

TIP: On macOS, download free "Premium" voices in System Settings → Accessibility → Spoken Content for dramatically better speech quality. Voices marked "· local" in Voxlight's settings give the most precise highlight tracking.
