Everything Psitta does
A desktop app that reads your documents aloud — so you can hear what you actually wrote.
Reading Nook
Listen to your documents with pixel-accurate highlighting and premium neural voices. Free and Pro tiers available.
PDF and DOCX support
Upload any PDF or Word document and Psitta extracts the text, preserving structure and reading order. Page-based chunking ensures accurate playback even for long documents.
Sentence-level highlighting
Every sentence lights up in real time as it's read aloud — pixel-accurate highlighting powered by PDFium character-level bounding boxes. Follow along visually or click any sentence to jump there.
Word-level highlighting
Pro subscribers get word-by-word highlighting synchronized to the audio. See exactly which word is being spoken at any moment — ideal for catching individual word-choice issues.
Premium neural voices
Choose from natural-sounding voices powered by ElevenLabs and Microsoft Azure Neural TTS. Free tier includes Edge TTS voices at no cost — upgrade to Pro for the full voice catalog.
Listening improves writing
Reading silently, your brain auto-corrects. Listening breaks the spell. Hear awkward phrasing, broken rhythm, and unclear passages that your eye skips over — the fix usually follows within seconds.
Built for Windows
Psitta is a native Windows desktop application — not a browser extension or web app. It runs locally on your machine with a clean, distraction-free interface designed for focused document review.
Creative Nook
Coming soonExpand beyond reading into structured content creation. Available as an add-on to Reading Nook Pro.
Creative workspaces
Organize your writing projects into dedicated workspaces — each with its own documents, voice settings, and revision history.
Listen while you write
Hear your draft as you write. Catch awkward phrasing, broken rhythm, and unclear passages by ear before anyone else does — at any stage of writing.
All Reading Nook Pro features included
