CLUSTER ALOUD-BROWSER-READS · 10 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2025-03-12

Text-to-speech browser extensions for accessibility

This cluster consists of browser extensions and add-ons that read web content aloud, including full pages, highlighted text, articles, code, and Notion pages, using offline or AI voices to support accessibility. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from — it predates the index or its members are undated. Among those with activity signals, koe leads with 3 stars, while the other two members have 0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
