No template editing is required. ### Support page builder? like Elementor, Divi, Gutenberg, etc **Yes, absolutely.** This plugin is fully compatible with all major WordPress page builders, including: * ✅ [Elementor](https://elementor.com/) * ✅ [Beaver Builder](https://www.wpbeaverbuilder.com/) * ✅ [WPBakery Page Builder](https://wpbakery.com/) * ✅ [Divi Builder](https://www.elegantthemes.com/gallery/divi/) * ✅ [SiteOrigin Page Builder](https://siteorigin.com/page-builder/) * ✅ [Brizy](https://www.brizy.io/) * ✅ [Gutenberg (Block Editor)](https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/wordpress-block-editor/) You can easily add and use the plugin’s features within any of these builders without extra configuration.

This plugin itself supports many languages [goto Supported Languages](https://tzm.wordpress.org/plugins/natural-text-to-speech/?output_format=md#supported-languages) But, when you want to integrate with text to speech (TTS) API as an audio source like OpenAI TTS, [ElevenLabs TTS](https://try.elevenlabs.io/reinventwp), Google Cloud TTS, Amazon Polly, and Azure AI Speech. So you will need to check their language support also: * [OpenAI TTS Supported languages](https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/text-to-speech#supported-languages) * [ElevenLabs TTS Supported languages](https://elevenlabs.io/docs/overview/capabilities/text-to-speech#supported-languages) * [Google Cloud TTS Supported languages](https://docs.cloud.google.com/text-to-speech/docs/list-voices-and-types?hl=en#list_of_all_supported_languages) * [Amazon Polly](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/polly/latest/dg/supported-languages.html) * [Azure AI Speech](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/speech-service/language-support?tabs=tts#supported-languages) ### Does it work with WooCommerce? Yes. You can use Reinvent WP Text To Speech with WooCommerce product content because the plugin supports custom post types, including products, alongside posts and pages. ### How does this plugin support accessibility, WCAG 2.1 AA, and ADA compliance? Reinvent WP Text To Speech helps you offer an audio alternative to written content for visitors who benefit from listening instead of reading. The player includes keyboard-accessible controls, visible focus states, ARIA labels, screen-reader-friendly playback status updates, sentence and word highlighting, and customizable highlight colors. These features help websites meet WCAG 2.1 AA and ADA compliance requirements while improving the reading experience for a wider range of visitors. ### How is my API key kept secure in PRO mode? Privacy and Data Security? Your API keys are stored in your WordPress database and used only for direct communication with the TTS provider you configure (e.g., OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, or ElevenLabs). If you use bring-your-own-key providers, requests go directly from your site to that provider. If you enable [Reinvent WP Cloud Free](https://reinventwp.com/text-to-speech/cloud?utm_source=wordpress_org&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=wporg_readme&utm_content=cloud_free#free), [Reinvent WP Cloud PRO](https://reinventwp.com/text-to-speech/cloud?utm_source=wordpress_org&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=wporg_readme&utm_content=cloud_pro#pro), or support-related diagnostics, some text, site context, and account-related data may be processed by Reinvent WP services. Review your enabled providers, your privacy policy, and the provider privacy pages before using cloud-based generation on a live site. ### Is this plugin GDPR compliant? This plugin can support privacy-conscious deployments, but it is not automatically GDPR compliant by itself. Your compliance depends on which providers and cloud features you enable, what data your site sends to third-party services, and how you document those flows in your own privacy and legal policies. ### Does Text to Speech improve SEO? Yes. Audio keeps users on the page longer and adds Text to Speech transcripts that Google can index, often boosting dwell-time and rankings. ### How does highlighted TTS make long content easier to listen to and follow? Long content can feel overwhelming, especially when visitors are tired, busy, or reading on a small screen. Reinvent WP Text to Speech helps turn that long reading experience into something easier, calmer, and more enjoyable. Instead of forcing visitors to read every sentence, they can press play, listen article content, and follow along as the words are highlighted on the page. Highlighted TTS creates a stronger connection between reading and listening. As the ai voice reads the content aloud, word highlighting helps visitors stay focused, keep their place, and understand the article without feeling lost. This makes the plugin useful for blog reader experiences, article reader layouts, audio articles, article audio, accessibility audio, post audio, blog audio, and content audio across WordPress posts, pages, and WooCommerce content. The plugin supports speech ai / ai tts workflows for generating audio from written content. It works like an ai tts generator and voice generator, giving site owners flexible options for natural narration through an ai voice platform. You can create female tts, female tts voice, male tts, and male tts voice experiences, or connect to advanced providers for chatgpt tts style audio, OpenAI text to speech, ElevenLabs TTS, Google Cloud TTS, Amazon Polly, Azure AI Speech, and Reinvent WP Cloud. Behind the scenes, the audio engine helps control how your content sounds and visually syncronized with word and sentence highlighting. For visitors, playback feels simple and smooth. The sticky footer player, speech widget, flexible audio player, and voice widgets give people easy ways to listen while scrolling through long content. Responsive voice playback also helps the listening experience feel comfortable across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices. Highlighted TTS also supports better accessibility. For users who struggle with long reading sessions, visual tracking, focus, or screen fatigue, listening while following highlighted words can make content easier to understand. Features built around wcag ada and wcag ada compliance help make your WordPress content more accessible, more welcoming, and easier to experience. Reinvent WP Text to Speech is built for text to speech, not speech to text. It turns written WordPress content into clear, natural audio so visitors can listen, follow, and stay engaged with your content longer. ### How do I upgrade to PRO? 1. Go to [our website](https://reinventwp.com/text-to-speech?utm_source=wordpress_org&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=wporg_readme), choose a plan, and complete payment. 2. You’ll get an email from Freemius with your license key 3. Search and install this plugin from the WordPress Plugins menu in your WordPress admin 4. Activate the plugin and enter your license key. ### How about user gesture? eg. double click to play Users can jump to a sentence or word by double-clicking. You can configure this in the Plugin Settings Page > Runtime. ### Can I use this Text to Speech plugin outside WordPress? Yes. We provide a [JavaScript embed](https://reinventwp.com/text-to-speech/js?utm_source=wordpress_org&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=wporg_readme) and an [NPM package for React, Next.js](https://reinventwp.com/text-to-speech/npm?utm_source=wordpress_org&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=wporg_readme), and custom websites. Use the WordPress plugin for WordPress sites, and use the JS/ NPM package when you need the same text to speech player in a non-WordPress app. ### Does it support Android WebView? Depends on your WebView provider **If your WebView supports the same APIs as a regular browser, it will work** We try using the [Trusted Web Activity](https://developer.android.com/develop/ui/views/layout/webapps/trusted-web-activities?hl=en) and it works. Here is the [simplified tutorial](https://github.com/reinventwp/twa-simplified) that you can follow Here is the example working App [Reinvent WP Text To Speech Web View with TWA Demo App](https://drive.google.com/file/d/16VbB5a5whxPYtAxhEvRr5h7VRhnHuOtq/view?usp=drive_link) When not working, you can just debug on the runtime of the application.

It's simple to set up, has a bunch of options to customize the critical parts and does exactly what it says. Works in many different languages, and most importantly for me – in Estonian as well. Before setting up the plugin I had to clarify something via customer support and the creator replied to all my emails within 15 minutes. Amazing customer service. Once my client's site becomes bigger and the free credits run out, I will happily pay for the pro version. You only get one shot at making a first impression and this plugin did it with flying colours. I can understand how this may sound like a paid comment or something, but I'm honestly just relieved that it worked so well. I was stressing over adding a proper TTS to the project I'm working on and feared it was gonna be a nightmare. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ebf45387e909d18239aaabacf0b22884e294314f21014445803bf8bda8511c53? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Exactly What I Needed—And the Support Matched the Product](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/exactly-what-i-needed-and-the-support-matched-the-product/)󠁿 [halperna](https://profiles.wordpress.org/halperna/) December 4, 2025 1 reply I run a blog focused on practical wisdom for professionals navigating midlife transitions. Adding audio narration was on my list for months, but I kept putting it off, assuming the setup would be a headache. It wasn't. The installation was straightforward, and the documentation is genuinely impressive—extensive without being overwhelming, clearly written, and logically organized. I was up and running faster than expected. What sealed it for me was the developer support. When I had questions, the response was fast, helpful, and human. No canned replies, no runaround—just someone who clearly cares about their product and the people using it. The plugin does exactly what it promises: natural-sounding narration with word highlighting that keeps readers engaged. The OpenAI TTS integration with custom prompt instructions let me dial in the exact tone I wanted for my content. If you're looking for a text-to-speech solution for WordPress and want something that actually works without becoming a side project, this is it.
