Seeking Feedback on a New Aggregator App for Timely Updates

1
Hi everyone! I’m excited to share that I'm planning to develop a new product aimed at helping people quickly and accurately get the latest updates from their favorite websites. In today's fast-paced information era, I believe there’s a need for a tool that acts as a content aggregator, allowing users to select their preferred sources and track specific keywords. The idea is that users can subscribe to chosen sources and set keywords they want to follow. Then, they will receive daily briefings that summarize the relevant information. These briefings will leverage AI to better understand the content and provide concise, tailored updates. Users can choose to listen to the updates or read them in text format. I’d love to hear your thoughts! Would this be something you'd find valuable? What features would you like to see? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated as I move forward with this concept! Thank you!

I've been exploring some news aggregator apps recently like Flipboard and SmartNews. The key for me is having a clean, skimmable interface that intelligently surfaces the most important stories. Sounds like your app is tackling the summary quality challenge head-on which is great. Have you looked at abstractive summarization models like PEGASUS or chatbots like Claude to generate the snippets? They can produce surprisingly coherent and informative summaries. Excited to check out your app when it launches!
