Liso: Turning Web Highlights into Audio
Ever feel like your eyes are giving out after a ten-hour scrolling session, but you still have three long-form articles to finish? Liso solves this by letting you highlight any text on a webpage and instantly converting it into audio. It's essentially a targeted text-to-speech tool that doesn't force you to listen to an entire page if you only care about two specific paragraphs.

For someone like me who constantly jumps between tabs and gets distracted, this is a solid AI workflow tweak. Instead of copy-pasting text into a separate TTS app or using the clunky built-in browser readers that often misread formatting, you just select the snippet and listen.
Since it's a browser-based utility, getting started is straightforward:
1. Install the extension.
2. Navigate to any article or documentation page.
3. Highlight the specific section you want to hear.
4. Trigger the audio playback.
It's a beginner-friendly way to handle information overload without needing a complex setup. If you're trying to optimize how you consume technical docs or long reads while multitasking, this is definitely worth the browser real estate.

Handy for long reads during my commute when I can't actually look at the screen.

Does it actually handle paywalls or just crash when the page isn't public? Typical overhyped tool.

I use something similar for research papers when my eyes start blurring around 2 AM.
