The web is full of great content, but reading later often means distractions, ads, and endless tabs. I built Oakamo to make reading enjoyable again. Save articles from anywhere, organize them in your personal library, read in a clean distraction-free reader, highlight important passages, and listen on the go. Oakamo is built for people who love reading and want a calmer, more thoughtful way to enjoy the web.

@mountaize You frame the real problem as saving articles and never coming back to them, and you're right ! But beyond the clean reader, what in Oakamo actually pulls people back to finish what they saved ?Do you think this is where the listen feature comes in?
Oakamo
@clement_avq Great question!
I think one of the biggest reasons is that people often save articles but don’t have time to read them straight away. Oakamo helps with that in a few ways.
You can keep reading articles offline (even without an internet connection if you’ve opened them before), which is great for commuting. And the listening feature lets you continue your reading while working at your desk, walking, or relaxing in a park, so you can enjoy your surroundings instead of staring at a screen ✌️
@mountaize thanks for the feedback !

The article-listening feature on top of clean reading is a smart combo — most read-later apps stop at clean layout, but audio lets you keep up while commuting. Does Oakamo use TTS or a service like ElevenLabs for the audio quality?

@dannyheng Thanks! right now Oakamo uses the device’s built-in voices for privacy and offline support. I’ve also spent time customising the listening experience to make the voices sound as natural and human as possible. I’m exploring premium AI voices for Supporter/Premium users too, as they have a cost to run, and I think they could be a great upgrade
Hi Niсola! First of all - it was cool to see your product among the endless list of similar 'AI agents doing everything for everyone'! And it looks like you found the real pain that people facing every day (me too). The idea of Oakamo is cool!
For now it looks like Oakamo is not working with LinkedIn articles links. I was using full form for them and paste text. Just one thought - for me it would be useful to keep source of article visible in article as an active link.

@julia_shtogren Thanks so much for the feedback!
LinkedIn is a bit tricky because of its restrictions, so I need to respect their policies. For now, you can use the Paste Text option and Oakamo will automatically format the content into a clean reading experience.
You can also access the original article via the Reference link shown just below the title, next to the estimated reading time. Thanks for the suggestion, I’m going to add a Source URL field to the manual import as well, so you can save the original link when pasting articles
@mountaize Cool, thank you! Yeah, Linked In is quite tricky in many ways. Wishing you good luck and success with Oakamo!
As someone who have 100+ tabs open in chrome of all the articles i want to read all the time this seems like really useful, i actually never really thought about a reading app for articles so this feels really amazing cuz once i put them in a tab i never want seem to revisit it, there are so many tabs idek what i have and what i don't so i just end up not reading anything and just adding more tabs. So personally this is smth i really really needed. A library for articles??? A dream frr.
Oakamo
@diksha_k Thank you so much!
This is exactly why I built Oakamo. I used to have way too many tabs open and never came back to them. Hopefully Oakamo can help turn that growing tab collection into a reading library you’ll actually enjoy coming back to ❤️
This is a nice product. Could you support importing and syncing the article list from Notion?
@chatabhishek This is the direction I’d be curious about too. For a read-later app, importing an existing list matters because people already have saved articles scattered around. I’d also care about the other side: whether highlights, notes, and source links can leave cleanly later, so the library never feels locked in.
Oakamo
@chatabhishek @eduard_turea Thanks both! I completely agree. One thing that’s already part of Oakamo is that your articles are stored in your own cloud, so your library isn’t tied to my servers. I’m also looking at ways to make importing existing libraries even easier
