Listen to: Give Audiences More Control With Personalized Listening

0:00 0:55

Listeners expect control. Podcast and audiobook apps taught people to change playback speed, pick up where they left off and choose what they hear, and they bring those expectations to any player they find on a publisher’s site.

Comprehension is personal. One reader wants a briefing at 1.5x on the way into the office, another needs a slower pace for a dense policy explainer, and a third simply follows a particular voice more easily.

AudioLayer’s player puts language, voice and speed controls on the article itself, so each listener can set the experience that works for them. Publishers decide what’s on the menu. Starter offers two voices and two languages, Growth offers four of each, and Business offers eight. A popular setup is two voices in the same language, so listeners can choose a male or female narrator.

That control is what turns narration into a feature people come back to. Try it on your own articles with AudioLayer’s Free plan at audiolayer.io.
