About the startup
Listen to articles, blogs, news stories, tutorials, and web pages with a clean, distraction-free reading experience designed for comfortable reading and listening. WebVox transforms cluttered websites into beautiful reader mode pages and reads them aloud using Android’s built-in text-to-speech engine.
