# Show HN: Claude Read Aloud – Hear Claude's Replies Instead of Reading > Source: > Published: 2026-09-11 21:50:29+00:00 When I'm working all day sometimes my eyes get tired and I don't read Claude's replies fully and understand them. So I made Claude Read Aloud to read Claude's replies for me. It's very helpful for when I'm running on low energy and I think it can also be helpful for people who are visually impaired. It's kind of soothing to hear sometimes. My Claude Code plugin reads claude code's replies out loud in whatever voice you choose. It comes with a VS code extension to make it super easy to use. You just click the speaker button and you can start hearing the replies or you can highlight the text you want to hear and right click to listen to it. It comes with many different API configurations to choose the best voice you can use speechify, eleven labs, open AI, and other freeware.
