No file? Just name the book.
Best for well-known books. We build the summary from the book's ideas, then read it aloud.
Tap a classic to listen — free, public-domain.
Three steps to turn a book into something you can listen to.
Drop in any EPUB or PDF. Pagescast reads the file in your browser and detects each chapter automatically.
Every chapter is condensed into a short summary that captures the core idea, the key points, and one practical takeaway.
Press play and listen straight through with continuous playback, change speed, or download the narration as MP3.
An AI book summarizer built for listening, not just reading.
Unlike catalog apps, Pagescast works on any EPUB or PDF you upload — including technical books, textbooks and titles no one else summarizes.
Each chapter becomes its own short, spoken-friendly summary, so you can follow the book's structure instead of one long blob.
Play summaries aloud with your device voice for free, or unlock premium AI narration that sounds natural and is downloadable as MP3.
Pagescast can summarize and narrate in multiple languages — useful for language learners and non-English books.
Every book shows reading time versus listening time, so you know exactly how many hours each summary saves you.
Parsing and the free voice run entirely in your browser. Only the chapter text needed for a summary is ever sent on.
Pagescast is for busy professionals who want a book's ideas on the commute, students and researchers condensing textbooks and papers, language learners who want summaries read aloud, and anyone with a stack of books they'll never find time to finish.
Summaries and the device voice are free. Premium AI narration uses credits — 1 credit ≈ 1 minute of audio, and your credits never expire.
After paying you'll get a licence key on screen — paste it into "Have a key?" and your credits are ready. Buy again with the same email and credits stack on the same key.
