What Aureley does

  • Reads PDFs, Word documents (.doc and .docx), EPUB, RTF, plain text, Markdown, web links and pasted text aloud. Video links aren't read.
  • Share a file to Aureley from another app, or add it inside Aureley.
  • The only thing you'll hear is the document. Page numbers, headers and footers on every page, and citation markers, stay out of the audio.
  • Highlights each word as it is read.
  • Eleven voices, each carefully selected so you'll still enjoy it an hour in. All are studio-quality natural voices, and one is Aureley's own.
  • Unlimited listening in your built-in voice, the voice already built into your phone or tablet, on every plan. If natural-voice hours run out, your built-in voice carries on.
  • Replay saved documents offline, anytime, no hours used.
  • On Plus and Max, turns a document of up to 60,000 characters into a Summary or a short Quiz, and saves to your files, Obsidian or Notion.
  • Nothing you import is used to train anything. Account, library and saved audio are stored in Australia (Sydney); some services, such as voice and Summary processing, run in the United States and are listed in the privacy policy.
  • Accounts can be deleted from inside the app.

The founder

Mel Murat is the founder and CEO of Sol Media, the studio behind Aureley, and a mum of two.

"I built this because I needed something I could afford that actually did what it promised, and I couldn't find it."
