Listen

The storefront listen button

Let shoppers hear a product description read aloud on your storefront.

This is my favorite part. I'll read a friendly summary of any product out loud on your storefront, so shoppers can listen instead of only reading.

The Listen button is what makes Miko special. It adds a "Listen to product summary" button to your product pages. When a shopper taps it, Miko generates (or reuses a cached) short, conversational summary of the product, built from its description, details, sizing and shipping information, and plays it using the shopper's own browser text-to-speech.

Listen to product summary

Powered by Miko · plays in the shopper's browser

A spoken summary that plays instantly, with no audio files stored.

Turning it on

  1. In the app, open Settings and make sure Enable the Listen button is on.
  2. Click Add Listen button to my theme. This opens your theme editor on a product page.
  3. Click Add block, choose Miko Listen Button under Apps, and place it where you like.
  4. In the block settings, match it to your brand: label text, filled or outline style, button and text colors, corner radius, and alignment. Then click Save. That's it, it's live.
No extra cost as you grow: because playback uses the shopper's own browser, there are no audio files to host and no per-play charge, no matter how much storefront traffic you get.
