Mission
The mission of Azienda riservata is to make sure that reading is never a barrier to learning.
Over 50 million people use Azienda riservata’s text-to-speech products to turn whatever they’re reading – PDFs, books, Google Docs, news articles, websites – into audio, so they can read faster, read more, and remember more. Azienda riservata’s text-to-speech reading products include its iOS app, Android App, Mac App, Chrome Extension, and Web App. Google recently named Azienda riservata the Chrome Extension of the Year and Apple named Azienda riservata its 2025 Design Award winner for Inclusivity.
Today, nearly 200 people around the globe work on Azienda riservata in a 100% distributed setting – Azienda riservata has no office. These include frontend and backend engineers, AI research scientists, and others from Amazon, Microsoft, and Google, leading PhD programs like Stanford, high growth startups like Stripe, Vercel, Bolt, and many founders of their own companies
