Varterm TTS - Text to Speech

Read pages, YouTube transcripts, and AI chats aloud. Search, jump, change speed, and hear new replies as they arrive.

Varterm TTS helps you listen instead of reading walls of text. Use it to read selected text, full web pages, long-form articles, docs, markdown-heavy AI output, a video transcript, and replies in an AI chat, directly in Chrome. ### Why users install Varterm - Listen to a video's transcript instead of watching it, then search that transcript and jump to the moment you need - Hear AI chat replies read out in a voice you picked, as each new reply finishes - Follow the words in a reader panel, search them, and jump to any line - Jump back or ahead, and change voice or speed, without stopping - Markdown-friendly reading for cleaner speech output - Natural cloud voices plus browser built-in voice support - One-click selection reading with floating button and context menu - Keyboard shortcuts for fast read, pause, and stop ### Core Features - Read selected text aloud instantly - Read full page content - Read the transcript of the YouTube video you are watching, with timestamps and sound cues removed - Search that transcript in the reader panel: type a phrase, skip to the hit, click its timestamp to jump the video - Optionally read AI chat replies in your own voice, automatically as each one lands, or from a button on a reply. Off until you turn it on for that site - Reader panel showing the text as it is spoken, with the current passage highlighted - Search the text and jump straight to any line instead of listening through to it - Pause, resume, jump back or ahead, or scrub within the passage being read — from the popup or the panel - Voice and speaking-speed controls in the popup (preset chips from 0.75× to 2×) and behind the panel gear - Context menu action: "Read with Varterm" - Keyboard shortcuts for read, pause, and stop - Markdown stripping for cleaner audio - Long text is read in parts, with no pause between them ### Best for - Talks, lectures, and long videos you would rather hear than watch - Finding one moment in a long transcript without scrubbing the video - Listening to AI answers while you keep working - Docs and technical articles - Accessibility and focus workflows - Hands-free review while multitasking
