About & Legal

Aireadio is a book-centered AI listening app. Under Books, browse curated shelves, search any title, and listen to AI-generated Quick guides (~5 min) and Deep dives (multi-episode) — plus chat about books with an AI reading companion and buy them. The Knowledge channel organizes hundreds of topics by category (science, history, geography, people, culture, art, medicine and more), each with an objective summary, AI quiz, discussion, and an immersive ~10-minute explainer. Multiple voices and speeds, sentence-by-sentence subtitles, background & lock-screen playback, and calm soundscapes for winding down.

Your settings, listening history, and generated content are stored locally on your device (in your browser) and are not uploaded unless you sign in to sync. We do not sell your personal data.

What we process: the topics you enter are sent to our content provider to prepare scripts and to Microsoft Azure to synthesize speech. Optional account sign-in (email or Google) stores your email to enable cross-device sync and membership.

How content is made: spoken scripts are machine-generated using third-party large language models (including DeepSeek and Google Gemini), and speech is synthesized with Microsoft Azure Text-to-Speech. Generated content is informational and may be imperfect — verify important details independently.

Google and its partners may use cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) and device identifiers to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites. You can opt out of personalized advertising via Google Ads Settings, and manage third-party ad cookies via aboutads.info.

Affiliate disclosure: book purchase links (e.g. Amazon) may earn us a commission at no extra cost to you.

Aireadio is provided “as is” for personal, non-commercial listening. Our scripts and content may contain inaccuracies — verify important information independently.

How to use Aireadio

Aireadio turns any book, topic, or question into a clear spoken guide you can listen to — no downloads, right in your browser. Here's how to get the most out of it.

Quick start

Ask anything. On the For You screen, tap the input and type a book title, a subject, or a question — or tap one of the suggested topics.
Pick a book. Search or browse the shelves on the Library tab. Open any book to see its options.
Press play. Choose Quick guide (a short ~5-minute intro) or Deep dive (a longer multi-episode walk-through). It's read aloud with the on-screen text synced.

The tabs

For You — search, trending picks, and the AI reading companion (tap the planet to chat about what to read).
Library — curated shelves, a search box (title, author, or ISBN), and “+ Add” to make your own shelf. Each book has Quick guide, Deep dive, Quiz, and buy links.
Community — Sharing (reading discussion topics), News (books & ideas headlines — double-tap a category to refresh), and Trending on Reddit.
Me — your listening stats, favorites, history, account, and the Calm sleep-sounds & breathing screen.
Settings — voice engine, appearance, and privacy options.

While listening

Play / pause, skip sentences, adjust speed, follow the synced script, and tap the star to favorite.
Playback shows on your lock screen with title and controls.
Aireadio remembers where you left off and keeps a short history so you can replay.

Voices & quality — this differs by device

Open Settings → Voice engine (or the voice button on the player) to choose a voice. There are two engines:

System voice (Free)

Uses the voices built into your own device, so quality and choice depend on your device and OS:

iPhone / iPad (Safari): Apple only exposes the basic “compact” voice to web pages, and downloaded Enhanced / Siri voices can't be listed. To use a better voice, pick “System default voice” at the top of the list — that routes to whatever voice your device is set to (including an Enhanced one). Download better voices in iOS Settings → Accessibility → Spoken Content → Voices.
Android (Chrome): install Google Text-to-Speech from the Play Store, then download voices in your system settings. In Aireadio's voice list, pick an “Online (Natural)” voice for high quality. (If a picked voice didn't switch before, that's now fixed.)
Desktop (Chrome / Edge): the list includes online “Natural / Online” network voices — pick one of those for the best quality (needs an internet connection).

Azure premium voice (Member)

A cloud neural voice that sounds the same high quality on every device and — importantly — keeps playing in the background and on the lock screen. Available to yearly members.

Please note

Background / lock-screen playback: with system voices, iPhone and (to a lesser degree) Android pause speech when the screen locks or the app is backgrounded — this is a platform limit, not a bug. When you return, playback resumes from the current sentence. For truly uninterrupted background listening, use the Azure voice.
AI-generated content: guides are informational and may contain inaccuracies. Please verify important facts. It is not professional, medical, legal, or financial advice.
Free limits: free accounts have a daily listening-time and chat allowance; membership removes ads and raises the limits.
Your data: settings and history are stored locally on your device. Sign in to sync across devices; clear everything anytime in Settings.
Install as an app: use “Add to Home Screen” for a full-screen, offline-capable experience.
