Editorial interest 86/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A Safari extension narrates scholarly web pages and their equations aloud, turning mathematical notation into spoken language.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-08 issue.

Field notes

Legato Reader extracts both prose and mathematical notation from Safari pages, including MathJax, MathML, KaTeX, and raw LaTeX, then prepares a script intended for listening rather than visual reading. Its stated parsing process uses the document's own notation conventions to resolve ambiguities such as absolute value versus modulus. The free plan covers two articles per month, while paid plans cover 20 or 60; previously narrated articles can be replayed without using another allowance.
