You have a long article open between meetings and want to get through a section without spending more time fixed on the screen.
You do not need to copy the whole article into a separate service. Start with a passage that fits the time you have, such as the introduction or one section with the context you need.
Keep the article where it is
With TextHalo, you can leave the article in its browser tab. Select the section you want to hear, use the read-selection shortcut, and let the floating player stay nearby while you listen.
Take the passage at your pace
Pause when you want to look back at a chart or reread a sentence. When you are ready, select the next section. The workflow stays anchored to the text and app you were already using.
This can also help when you are comparing a few passages. Listen to one, pause to take a note, then select another. The app’s menu bar controls and floating player keep the basic playback actions close at hand.
TextHalo runs speech synthesis locally on your Mac. Choose an Apple voice to begin, or download Kokoro or Chatterbox if you want to try a local AI voice.
