You have finished a first pass and want a different perspective before editing. Instead of moving the text to another tool, select a passage in your editor and listen to it with TextHalo.
The writer starts with a paragraph rather than the entire document. A short selection makes it easier to notice a single issue and connect it to the exact wording on the page.
Listen for the shape of the sentence
As the passage plays, the writer notices where the pace slows, where a phrase is repeated, and where a transition does not quite connect. They pause, revise the original text, then listen again.
For a second pass, they listen for one thing at a time: first repeated words, then long sentences, then whether the transition into the next paragraph feels natural. Focusing on one editing question can make the listening pass more useful.
Keep authorship with the writer
TextHalo reads the selected words aloud; it does not rewrite or judge the draft. The writer decides what to change. Apple system voices work immediately, while optional Kokoro and Chatterbox engines run locally after their models are downloaded.
Listening is one more way to review writing. It works best alongside the usual visual checks for spelling, names, links, and formatting.
