This product has enormous potential to save time and make readers' lives easier. Personally, it would save me a ton of time, depending on the level of nuance the recasts can convey. Having a way to indicate key themes and events which you want to focus on in recasts would be fantastic.
Oh this is awesome, most of my time to read articles is when Im on the go, so I keep all these tabs open and never get to them - but I dont have enough time for hour long podcasts - perfect bite sized mix!
Recast is incredible! I struggle to prioritize what to read with my limited free time and often keep several tabs open to save articles. Recast helps me get through almost everything I want to read without needing to sit in front of the computer. I love it!
Love Recast been using since day one, awesome and the voices used are high quality and sounds like a natural interview makes long form easier to listen to.
This is so useful that the pitch kinda writes itself! "Are you the type of person whose browser always has 50 tabs of unread articles that "you're going to get to soon"? Stop lying to yourself -- you like to listen, not to read."
Been using since early beta. The idea is genius & I'm very impressed with the voices - they're very real and pleasant to listen to actually. The killer feature for me is recasting my own articles. Though there is a growing library and recommendations that actually work quite well, I love recasting long-form articles that I find on social media or that my friends send me. Keep going strong & good luck with the launch!
