Our story
We believe great writing deserves to be heard.
ButterReader started with a simple frustration: brilliant blog posts were going unheard — literally. People are busy, commuting, cooking, walking. Reading isn't always an option, but listening is.
Turning an article into audio used to mean a microphone, a quiet room, and an afternoon of editing. So most writers never bothered. We thought that was a shame, and a solvable one.
Today, ButterReader turns any post into a warm, natural, on-brand audio player in minutes — no recording, no code. We handle the AI voices, the content detection, and the embed, so you can keep doing the part only you can do: write.
What we value
The principles behind every release.
Writing first
Audio should serve the words, not bury them. We obsess over narration that respects the author's voice.
Effortless by default
No microphones, no editing suites, no API keys for most people. If it isn't simple, it isn't done.
On your brand
Your player should look like you made it. Every pixel is yours to shape.
