The Tortoise and the Hare, by Aesop.
A Hare one day ridiculed the short feet and slow pace of the Tortoise, who replied, laughing: "Though you be swift as the wind, I will beat you in a race." The Hare, believing her assertion to be simply impossible, assented to the proposal; and they agreed that the Fox should choose the course and fix the goal.
On the day appointed for the race the two started together. The Tortoise never for a moment stopped, but went on with a slow but steady pace straight to the end of the course. The Hare, lying down by the wayside, fell fast asleep.
At last waking up, and moving as fast as he could, he saw the Tortoise had reached the goal, and was comfortably dozing after her fatigue.
Slow but steady wins the race.

This helps when...
- You “just drop an article PDF in” and want it read to you. Add the file. Close the tab. We email you the link.
- You want to “read PDFs like an audiobook.” Press play and walk away.
- A long PDF “becomes a 4 hour slog.” Listen in pieces, as far as about three hours per document.
- You have a report to catch up on before a meeting. Listen on the way there.
- A headline number matters. Listen first, then check the page for tables and charts.
Questions
Questions
Does it read tables and charts?
Small tables are read out, row by row. Long number tables and charts are skipped. Check the original for any number that matters.
How long does a long report take?
About half as long as it takes to listen: an hour of listening is ready in about 30 minutes. It reads up to about three hours, then stops.
