About ButterReader

ButterReader is a text-to-speech audio widget for blogs and websites. It converts posts into AI-narrated audio and embeds it with one line of code, with customizable player designs, audio visualizers and listening analytics. It is made for content creators who want readers to listen rather than read, and it supports embedding on WordPress, Ghost, Webflow, Squarespace, Shopify, Notion and custom HTML pages.

ButterReader presents a three-step flow: paste or upload text, pick a voice and style, and embed the snippet into a site. It handles the voices and synchronization, so changes apply to embedded players on page load without re-pasting. It is designed to be easy to use, with no API keys required and no separate mic or editing environment.

ButterReader provides a branded audio player that can be embedded anywhere with one line of code. It uses natural Chirp 3 HD voices for default narration and Gemini Flash for expressive tones on Pro plans.

ButterReader’s pricing is laid out with a Free plan and Pro options, including monthly and yearly billing. The product emphasizes branding, content detection, and analytics, with character caps per month and a straightforward embed process. It supports multiple platforms and CMSs, and it enables users to customize the player’s appearance and behavior across embedded instances.
