I made a purchase on Speechify by… I made a purchase on Speechify by accident. I emailed to them and asked for the full refund. Ian was extremely useful and issued the refund as well as 50% promo code in case I want to use their services again. Overall, great experience. Expecting my refund in the next 5-10 days.

Doesn't follow punctuation correctly and word stress is not always correct in Italian I just tried an Italian cloned voice. The overall voice quality is good, but it doesn't follow punctuation correctly and word stress is not always correct. I can't use that for my app. In addition, I need an API and I don't see that anywhere. Only after upgrading, did I realize that they don't give refunds on monthly plans.

Predatory subscription model and endless bugs The premium service (especially the mobile app) is extremely buggy and not worth the price, in my opinion. Not offering monthly memberships is extremely predatory. We all know subscription services make most of their money from people forgetting to cancel free trials, but most companies have the decency to only charge you for the month. 100$+ is a hell of a price to pay for forgetting to cancel. Now onto the technical issues. The voices themselves are great, but I frequently have to refresh the page because the audio starts cutting out and skipping over whole paragraphs. The “highlight text” feature is great until you touch literally anything on the screen, then it freaks out and you have to toggle it on and off again to get it working. Importing texts via link has never worked a single time for me, I’ve always had to upload pdfs. The options to “skip citations” never works correctly either so I always find I have to edit the pdf manually myself which takes several minutes and makes the “time saving” facet of this service completely moot for me. The mobile app is so buggy it’s honestly not even worth having, in my experience. There are other issues but I feel like I’ve made my point. The fact you cannot get monthly memberships sucks the most for me. I only need the service during the months I have school, so paying a yearly membership (other than being extremely predatory and shady to begin with), is very inconvenient for me. Lastly, the last time I contacted customer service I had to wait 5 days before I received an answer, which was endlessly frustrating because I was cramming for my finals and needed my problem solved way earlier.

Try this as it works Well, I 1st started using this service over a year ago due to the fact that I have a severe learning disability and have an inability to concentrate for long periods of time. Though it I is easier to listen to others I must say listening to Snoop Dogg reading my Pre-Med educational materials is extremely soothing, and I am able to consume the materials with ease, and almalgomate them into written pieces of work much easier. I highly recommend this product and would hope you will at least try for a month, as at the very least you can circumvent most other services if you already have access to the reading materials. 110% amazing thank you so much.

Excellent App, Fantastic Customer Service Amazing app, in the past 12 months, with Speechify I've saved 50% of my study time, studied better and remembered more. Moreover, when I made a mistake with payment and wrote to them one of their staff named Maria responded in about 3 minutes, kept in touch with me and saw that my case was resolved to my satisfaction within 42 hours.
