Sensory Readable is designed to assist users with reading difficulties, slow reading speeds or those who prefer to listen while interacting with their computer. Sensory Readable is also a great automatic proof-reader for your writing – listen back to your creations and spot most errors.

With Sensory Readable , you can effortlessly navigate through Microsoft documents, web pages, and various applications with ease. The software uses advanced accessibility technology combined with the Microsoft offline text-to-speech capabilities to accurately identify and speak the words on your screen.

Sensory Readable is a fresh design for turning your text into audio, so listen to your research documents, reports, e-mails, news feeds – in fact pretty much any text – with ease. Advantages of Sensory Readable are;

1. Select any accessible text from most apps and Readable will speak it. Click and Play in Microsoft Word, Edge, Outlook and more. New “Point and Speak” cursor tracking – move your mouse cursor across the screen, Readable detects the text underneath the mouse cursor instantly. You can choose to hear the word or line only, the whole paragraph spoken or everything from that cursor onwards. No internet connection is required. 2. Text-to-Speech performance: Once the text is identified, Readable employs the locally installed high-quality text-to-speech to convert the text into natural-sounding speech. You can customise the voice, pitch, and speed according to your preferences. No internet access need for the text to speech voices to work.

3. Application Compatibility: Readable is compatible with a wide range of applications, and is very tightly integrated with Microsoft Word, Edge web browser, Outlook and many more. It seamlessly adapts to different software interfaces, providing a consistent experience throughout your computer usage.

4. Accessibility Features: In addition to reading text, Readable offers extra accessibility features such as highlighting the spoken words on the screen (in a range of colours) and echoing words as you type. It also allows you to convert a whole document to an audio file, to listen to on any device later. 5. Sensory Readable also provides additional accessibility and ease of use for Microsoft Word. When in Word you can easily change the background colour, spacing and font sizes of the document. Readable helps you launch word prediction, dictionaries, spell check or speech dictation and provides additional accessibility support for these tools. Readable includes a homophone identifier, allowing you to identify and check tricky words. 6. Contextual Awareness: Readable intelligently detects and announces other relevant information, such as menus, buttons, links, word prediction or tooltips, that might aid in understanding the content and navigating applications more effectively.
