EarCast - Article to Podcast

Turn any web article into audio with one click. Listen in-browser, download as MP3, or add to your personal podcast feed.

EarCast turns web articles into natural audio with one click. Open an article, click the EarCast icon, choose a voice, and listen in seconds. EarCast extracts the article text, generates natural audio, and gives you a floating player right on the page. You can also download the MP3, save articles in your local Library, or add converted articles to your private podcast RSS feed. Why EarCast is different Most read-aloud tools stop at in-browser playback. EarCast can turn your reading list into a private podcast feed. Add your feed once to a podcast app that supports custom RSS, and converted articles can appear like podcast episodes. Works with podcast apps that support custom RSS feeds, including Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Pocket Casts, Castro, and other RSS podcast apps. How it works Open any web article in Chrome.
