PageTalk

Your living library

Read, listen, and save what matters.

Coming soon to the App Store

iPhone · iPad · Mac · Apple Watch planned · No subscriptions

PageTalk turns files you already own into a private reading and listening library. Import PDFs, web articles, pasted text, and owned audio files; keep the original source; listen offline; follow along with chapters and transcripts; and save notes, quotes, and bookmarks back to the book.

📚

A library for your files

Import PDFs, web articles, pasted text, Markdown, MP3, M4A, M4B, and audio MP4 files you already own.

🎧

Listen offline

Play imported audiobooks directly, or generate local audio for readable documents with Apple voices or neural voices.

🧭

Chapters and read-along text

Use embedded M4B chapters and sidecar transcripts when available, so long audio stays navigable instead of becoming one giant timeline.

📝

Notes tied to the source

Save notes, quotes, and bookmarks while you read or listen. Your annotations stay attached to the specific book.

📄

Keep the original

Source PDFs and imported audio remain part of the book package, so you can return to the authentic original when needed.

🔒

Local-first by design

Your library lives in your device or iCloud Drive storage. Remote AI features are planned as explicit opt-in tools, not hidden tracking.

How it works

1

Import a PDF, article URL, pasted text, or audio file you already own.

2

PageTalk stores the book as a self-contained package with text, metadata, artwork, audio, and original source files when available.

3

Read or listen with chapters, progress, and transcript support.

4

Save notes, quotes, and bookmarks back to the book, then review them later from the Notes view.
