Reading, without the struggle
Dyslexia makes decoding words effortful — not understanding them. Frateca reads any text aloud with natural voices so your energy goes into the meaning, not the letters.
Free plan included · iOS, Android & web · No credit card required
With dyslexia, the hard part of reading is usually decoding — turning letters into sounds — not comprehension. By the time the decoding is done, the energy for actually thinking about the material is gone. Frateca does the decoding for you, reading documents, articles, web pages and books aloud with clear, natural voices so you can follow along, focus longer, and read with far less fatigue.
Built for effortless reading
Small changes that make a big difference when reading is hard work.
Read along as you listen
Following the text while you hear it (bimodal reading) links sound to spelling — the most effective way to study with dyslexia.
Less fatigue
No more burning out halfway through. Listening removes the decoding effort, so you can keep going far longer.
Stay focused
A natural voice gives you a pace to follow, making it easier to stay with long passages instead of drifting.
Proofread by ear
Hear your own writing read back to catch missing words and typos your eyes skim over — effortless proofreading.
Natural, clear voices
Robotic voices are tiring. Frateca’s natural AI voices and adjustable speed keep listening effortless.

Questions, answered
Does text-to-speech help with dyslexia?
Yes. Dyslexia mainly affects decoding, not comprehension. Text-to-speech does the decoding for you, so your attention goes into understanding the meaning. Many readers find they read longer and retain more.
Can I read along while it reads aloud?
Yes. Reading the text while you hear it — bimodal reading — links the spoken and written word and is one of the most effective ways to use text-to-speech for studying.
What voice and speed are best for dyslexia?
A clear, natural voice at a comfortable, often slightly slower pace. Robotic voices add effort. Start slow, then increase the speed gradually once comprehension feels easy.
