Speechify: Reads documents, PDFs and web pages aloud in a natural voice at the speed you set.

Superhuman: Fast email client for Gmail and Outlook with AI triage, summaries and drafts.

Documents you listen to are uploaded to the service's servers: keep contracts and HR documents with personal data out
The voice reads abbreviations and numbers oddly: for reports with figures, listen along with the text
The trial converts to annual billing automatically: cancel before it ends if the service does not suit you

The client gets access to the whole mailbox: for work email, clear it with your IT and security teams
A draft "in your style" copies your habits too, including sharp ones: reread it
Triage hides some emails in other sections: review them during the first weeks so you do not miss an invoice
