How AI works
An AI at the top of your screen. Always one click away.
Don’t need things read out loud? Turn it off, and Speaklit becomes a quick AI that floats over everything you do. Copy any text, press AI, and ask. The answer shows up right on top of your page. No new tab, no pasting into a chatbot.
- 5 free AI answers a day
- No card needed
- Windows, Mac & Linux
Set it up once
Turn Speaklit into your AI in 5 seconds.
- Click ⚙ on the Speaklit bar.
- Turn off Read out loud.
- The RC button turns into AI. That’s it.
Now nothing is ever read out loud. Answers just show up as text, like a chat. Want the voice back some day? Flip the switch on again.
Why it’s faster
Skip the copy-paste dance.
Using an AI chatbot means leaving what you’re doing. With Speaklit, the AI is already sitting at the top of your screen.

The basics
Three ways to ask
1
Press AI and ask anything
Copy any text and press AI. Speaklit opens with your text and the cursor already in the box, so you just type: “What do I need to do, and by when?”, “What does this word mean?”, “Is this on the test?”
The AI already knows what you copied, so there’s nothing to paste or explain. Keep asking follow-ups like a conversation.
2
Press EC to get it explained
Don’t even want to type? Press EC and pick how: simpler, shorter, as steps, as a quiz. There are 14 ways, and Speaklit remembers your favorite.
3
Or skip the mouse
Copy, then press Ctrl + Alt + R (Mac: ⌃ ⌥ R). Speaklit pops up with what you copied, ready for your question.
Close it with the ✕ when you’re done. The bar stays at the top of your screen for next time.

About Speaklit AI
Do I need a ChatGPT account?
No. Speaklit’s AI is built in. You don’t need any other account or app, and there’s nothing to set up.
Which AI does it use?
Speaklit uses OpenAI’s models through Speaklit’s own server, tuned for explaining and answering questions about what you’re reading.
Does it see everything on my screen?
No. The AI only gets the text you chose, and only when you press EC or ask a question. Nothing else on your screen is sent. See our privacy policy.
Is my text saved?
No. The text is sent to make the answer and isn’t stored on our servers afterwards. We only count how many AI answers you’ve used, for the plan limits.
Can I turn read aloud off completely?
Yes. Click ⚙ on the Speaklit bar and turn off Read out loud. The RC button turns into AI and nothing is ever spoken: answers just show up as text. Turn it back on any time.
Does it stay on top of other apps?
Yes. The small Speaklit bar floats at the top of your screen over every app, website, PDF and document, so the AI is always one click away. Drag it anywhere you like.
Is the AI always right?
No. AI can make mistakes, so double-check anything important, like due dates, numbers or facts for a test, against the original text.
Can I keep asking follow-up questions?
Yes. The AI remembers the text and your earlier questions, so you can keep the conversation going like you would with a tutor.
