Overview

Tider turns PDFs, articles, and personal documents into podcast-style audio on Mac or iPhone; it also makes audiobooks in the cloud. Sources can include PDFs, DOCX files, URLs, and RSS feeds. Episodes can use a single narrator or a host-and-guest format, with controls for narrator persona, audience, tone, pacing, and focus areas. Podcasts and summaries are generated on-device and can work offline after the language and voice models have been downloaded. Tider can also follow RSS feeds and URLs, crawl them, and convert them into an audio queue. Its Free plan costs 0.00 USD per free and includes unlimited on-device podcasts and summaries, unlimited cloud audiobooks, source imports, and plans saved locally. Audiobooks are generated on Tider’s servers. Tider says documents, scripts, and generated audio are processed and stored locally rather than uploaded; Pro cloud sync stores saved plans across Mac and iPhone, not documents or audio. Downloads are listed for macOS, Linux, and iPhone. Tider says it receives an email address when a user creates an account or enables Pro cloud sync, and holds no personal data if the user never signs in.

Who it is for

Tider suits people who want to listen to documents or web sources as narrated audio, with control over the format and delivery. Its offline on-device generation may also suit listeners who download the required language and voice models in advance.

What is good

  • Supports PDF, DOCX, URL, and RSS sources.
  • Offers solo narration or host-and-guest dialogue.
  • On-device podcasts and summaries can work offline.
  • Free plan includes unlimited on-device podcasts and summaries.

What to know first

Verdict
