What it is
A literacy support toolbar and app suite (formerly published by Texthelp, now under the rebranded parent company Everway) that adds text-to-speech, a Screenshot Reader that OCRs scanned pages and PDFs into readable text, word prediction, speech-to-text dictation, a picture/text dictionary, and a 'Simplify' feature that rewrites dense text into plainer language. It runs as a Chrome/Edge extension, a Windows/Mac desktop app, and a mobile app, and integrates with Google Docs, Microsoft Office and most classroom platforms.
