Ari Companion: Voice Assistant

Ari Companion: she reads to you, and talks it over with you

Ari reads books aloud and talks with you about them, like a friend reading alongside you. You just speak. No typing, no menus. Ari is made to be simple for seniors and older adults, and she's lovely for anyone who would rather listen than read.

Your books, read aloud
Choose from 75,000 free classics, or open your own: a book you own as a PDF, EPUB or text file, a letter from family, a church newsletter, a manuscript. Ari reads it aloud, and subscribers hear the story with a different voice for each character.

Stop and talk about it
Unlike an audiobook, you can stop any time and ask. "Why did he do that?" "Who is the doctor again?" "What did she mean by that?" Ari knows which book you're reading and the passage you just heard, so you never have to explain. She won't spoil what happens next unless you ask her to. When the book is finished, talk it over: what it meant, and what stayed with you.

Pick up where you left off
Ari remembers your place. Open the app and your book is right at the top, one tap from carrying on.

A companion, too
Ari remembers the people and the details that matter to you. Say "good morning" for the weather, the news and a little this-day-in-history. Set reminders and medication reminders just by saying them. Ask her to call, text or email your family, check your calendar, or add to your shopping list, all by voice.

Not sure where to start? Say "Show me what you can do for me" and Ari will tell you herself.

Speaks your language
Ari understands and replies in 29 languages.

Safety built in
A one-tap emergency button, and a trusted family contact always a word away. Your information stays private and secure.

Free every day
Everyone gets time with Ari every day, with no card needed. On the free plan she reads and talks in your phone's own voice, and greets you every morning in hers.

Simple pricing: one plan, everything included
Try Ari free for 14 days. After that:
• $7.99 a month, or
• $39.99 for six months, about one month free
Unlimited time with Ari, every feature included. Her own voice and the character voices come with a monthly allowance; if it runs out, she carries on in your phone's voice until the next month. She never goes quiet.

Great for: seniors and older adults, book lovers, people living alone, low vision, or anyone who prefers listening and talking to reading and typing.
