Listen to your PDFs, offline

Lampka reads any PDF with text aloud, using the voices already on your computer. Nothing is uploaded.

Follows along Pro

Each sentence is highlighted as it's read, and the reading ruler moves with the voice.

Skips the clutter Pro

Headers, footers, page numbers and citation numbers can be left out, so you hear the text, not "page 14, [12]".

Remembers where you stopped Pro

Your listening place is kept separately from your reading place, so you can read one chapter and listen to another.

Start anywhere Pro

Right-click a sentence and choose Read aloud from here. Change the speed and voice in the bar.

Private

It works offline. Nothing you listen to leaves your computer.

Scanned pages are pictures with no text, so they can't be read aloud.

Try it free

Lampka for Windows 10 and 11 is free while it's in beta. It works offline and you don't need an account.

Download the free beta

During the beta, everything marked Pro is free too. Afterwards reading stays free, and the Pro tools are a one-time purchase.

Founders get Pro for £15 until 1.0. See pricing
