What is Clearly Reader?

Distraction-free reading with text-to-speech.

Who is Clearly Reader best for?

Clearly Reader is best for people who read long web articles and want them free of clutter or read aloud.

  • Long-form reading

    It strips ads, pop-ups and copy blocks from a page and shows the article in a clean layout you can restyle.

  • Listening instead of reading

    Paid plans read articles aloud with the browser's voices or Microsoft's engine, with adjustable voice, speed and pitch.

  • Note-takers and researchers

    Articles export to PDF, Word, Markdown or EPUB, or go to Obsidian, Craft, Pocket or Instapaper.

  • Deciding what to read

    Pressing Alt+S gives an AI summary with key points and an outline before you commit to the full article.

How much does Clearly Reader cost?

Clearly Reader is free for its basic reading mode, Pro is a one-time $29.99 for lifetime use, and the Subscription with AI and cloud features costs $9.99 a month or $59.9 a year.
