Rytr.me was recommended to me by another user in our company. I used the free version a couple of times, and then decided to subscribe to the Saver plan to have more credits. I think Rytr.me is well suited for blog posts, social media posts, and emails. I am using it to help write sales and marketing emails, providing it with some key words and the tone I would like. After I get the results, I tweak it into my own voice, as needed. This has saved me valuable time when it comes to being a creative writer staring at a blank screen.

It works very well at home. For exams and homework the text to speech function is really useful. In lessons is good too. The text to speech is more complicated to use because the candidates/ students need a different room. We also need more training on how to use this function.

  • Creates vocabulary lists for students that include symbols, definitions, and space to add additional notes or images (a staff favorite)
  • Intuitive word prediction that supports spelling, grammar, and reduces the number of keystrokes needed
  • Text-to-speech on any digital text using the regular reader or screenshot reader, making almost any content accessible

Cons
Rytr LLC
  • I just started using Rytr.me, so I haven't found areas for improvement yet.

  • Setting the speech to text up on different devices that do not have the internet speed to function smoothly or if it is in Exam mode and the user is not constantly using the speech to text mode.
  • Grouping the voices on their style such as harsh, clipped or soft would enable to pick their preference quicker rather than going through all of the different countries.

I'm just really impressed with the software and the access it gives to learners who are used to coming up against barriers in education. It's a quick-fix for a learner - something they can access usefully and productively with very little training. I also love that learners can access Read&Write on their devices at home - that really is a game changer.

I am giving this an 9. Not a perfect score because working on PDFs is better but not yet as easy as I need for it to be. Working with many students who have executive function challenges, I need a smooth simplistic access method. We are not quite there yet for writing on PDFs. Overall the toolbar on Read&Write is super easy to access and I love that the suite includes several tools on the toolbar providing a solution to many accessibility challenges.

The support team at Texthelp is excellent. They're all super helpful and open to feedback and new ideas. Still, more importantly, they are ultimately fully committed to aligning with us and ensuring they help us provide the best education possible. Furthermore, they're open to new features and always communicate this incredibly well.

It took a solid 2 weeks for R&W to work on our students chromebooks even after reaching out to tech support. The toolbar was greyed out and not accessible to students. Took a long time before tech support helped us solve this problem.

We still utilize Microsoft Immersive Reader as our Tier2 / UDL support tool. However, the word prediction is barely functional and there are confusing limitations to when certain tools are available (the picture dictionary is available in Word Online but not in Edge). We still utilize the Windows-based speech-to-text (windows+h) because it is available natively in Windows even in desktop applications other than a web browser. It is good for people to know one tool that works everywhere. However, Read&Write offers the most complete set of ELA support features all in one place, without burdening the user with extra software or a confusing interface.

The pricing is reasonable. A lower tier with just screen reading and basic functions would be nice, but not a deal-breaker.
