Why Ghost Reader

Fully offline

The AI model runs entirely on your iPhone. No Wi-Fi, no cellular, no cloud. Works on a plane, in a tunnel, anywhere.

No limits

No credits, no monthly caps. Listen to as many documents as you want for as long as you want.

Completely private

Your documents never leave your device. No analytics, no tracking, no account required. Ever.

Neural voices

Multiple natural-sounding AI voices in English and Spanish. Cloud-quality narration, running fully on-device.

Any format

PDF, EPUB, web articles, Markdown, plain text. Share from Safari, Files, or any other app.

Plays everywhere

Background audio, AirPlay, lock screen controls. Ghost Reader fits into how you already listen.

The private alternative to ElevenLabs Reader and Speechify

Cloud-based narration apps send your documents to remote servers. Ghost Reader keeps everything local — same neural voice quality, without anyone reading over your shoulder.
