   Appwrite is awesome, free and open-source!

   I've use it instead of Firebase on a 15$ DigitalOcean droplet and saved around ~$150 a month. Managing my own infra does take some extra time, but definitely worth it. The APIs and SDK are also surprisingly much easier to consume than Firebase. Waiting for the cloud version.

   🏁 Competitors: Firebase

   👍 Pros:    Easy to use|Cost effective|Open-source|Great user experience|Super simple|Self hosted

   👎 Cons:    Self hosted

   Best widget reads the text

   WebsiteVoice makes my job easier with automatic text recognition. The tool finds the text itself from the website, and the widget reads the text out loud in AI-based speech. However, I would love to see a text highlighting feature as well on the platform.

   🏁 Competitors: ReadSpeaker

   👍 Pros:    Automatic text recognition.

   👎 Cons:    No text highlighting.

   Best online text reader application

   I have looked for many online text reader application. I have found some very technological advanced tool, but all of them are too expensive. Then I found WebsiteVoice which offer all the necessary features needed for a website, and most importantly it is much affordable.

   🏁 Competitors: Google Cloud Text-to-Speech

   👍 Pros:    Affordable text reader app.

   👎 Cons:    Ads removed in higher tier plan.
