Clearly Reader
FreemiumReader mode extension with AI summaries, chat and text to speech
What is Clearly Reader?
Clearly Reader strips ads and clutter from web articles and shows them in a clean, customizable reading view. Its AI features summarize pages, pull out key points and let you ask questions about the article, and it can read text aloud.
Pressing Alt+S gives a quick AI gist of the page with a short summary, key points and an outline. Text to speech uses the browser's voices or a Microsoft engine with adjustable rate and pitch, and translation works word by word or by paragraph. Themes, fonts, sizes and spacing are all adjustable.
Articles can be exported to PDF, Word or Markdown, clipped to the cloud, sent to email or Kindle, or pushed to Craft, Obsidian, Pocket and Instapaper. It runs as an extension for Chrome, Edge and Firefox and as an iOS app. Basic reading features are free, while cloud and AI features need a paid plan.
