It would be really great to have a read aloud function. A text to speech that we can use as we write. A small selection of natural voices would be great.
Would also be great if it worked well enough (and had enough voices) to make an inexpensive audio book that way.

I usually export my project (whole or in parts) and then pop it into elevenreader to listen. I find that I spot different inconsistencies when I listen vs. read. It’s also an excellent way to review a chapter or two while you’re not tied to the keyboard. I’ve been listening to mine while I cook, etc.

This would be awesome, could even have it powered by users inserting their own elevenlabs api key.

This would be very helpful for those who want to hear it aloud and make sure that what they just put down makes sense to anyone but themselves.

I would love this. As part of my writing, I always try to read things out loud so I can hear what the natural conversation voice sounds like. This might also help me catch errors when I have duplicate paragraphs that are placed in other chapters. It seems reading out loud can cause my brain to click into place better. Do this as well as find a way to easily rid large books of duplicate scenes and paragraphs

Something similar to Gemini one would be great!
