You'll also have access to the Read the Web extension after you log into Kurzweil on the Web. Simply click Enable Read the Web at the bottom left side of the webpage:

Also, we have created a series of videos on some of Kurzweil's best features.

Extra Voices and Videos

However, if you want extra voices, you can download and install extended voice-packs for Windows or voice-packs for Mac.
