How it works
This reader uses the Web Speech API built into your browser. The voices come from your operating system (and, in Chrome and Edge, some online voices), so audio is generated on your device — nothing is uploaded and there are no usage limits. The tool looks for an exact pa-IN voice first, then another accent of the same language, and warns you if neither exists.
