- Complete Privacy: Your text never leaves your device. No data is collected, stored, or transmitted.
- Zero Latency: Speech starts instantly — no waiting for server processing.
- Offline Support: Once the page loads, TTS works even without internet.
- Unlimited Usage: No API limits, no credits, no subscriptions required.
- Multi-Language: Access all voices installed on your operating system, including regional accents and dialects.
