✨ Key Features:
Smart Extraction: Automatically extracts the main article, stripping away ads, menus, and noise.
Word Highlighting: Follow along easily as spoken words are highlighted in real-time.
100% On-device: Runs locally via the Supertonic WebGPU engine. Your text is never sent to any server.

📖 How to use:
1. Read the current page: Open any article. Click the readit.dev extension icon in your toolbar and hit Play.
2. Read selected text: Highlight any text on the page. Right-click and select "Read with readit.dev" from the context menu.
3. Read pasted text: Open the extension's Side Panel. Paste your custom text into the input area and press Play.

🔒 Privacy First: Because all speech synthesis is processed locally on your computer, your reading materials remain strictly private. readit.dev never collects, stores, or transmits the content you read.
