Writing, Translation & Voice

The software in this category works with words and voices. It includes live subtitles and translation for videos and calls, subtitle editors, tools that describe pictures or write alt text, and translation of comics. There are also apps that read text aloud or turn your own books into audio, and some that help you draft longer texts, for example an ebook.

Support for less common languages varies a lot between tools, so compare the languages first. For live captions and translation, check how long the delay is and whether the tool joins your call as a visible bot or listens on your own computer. With read-aloud and voice tools, ask whose voice is used. Our directory lists tools where it is clear a machine is speaking, and voice copying only with the consent of the person it belongs to.
