I just tried out and really the summaries quality is top notch, its not so easy to consume the full summary at once cuz of its depth but its depends on person to person. I loved it. Don't go on my words only just check out samples on bookasto.com. Highly recommended
Hey PH community! 👋
I'm Ajay, the solo maker behind Bookasto — a podcast-style book summary app that makes learning from non-fiction actually enjoyable and sticky.
What is Bookasto?
I built Bookasto to solve a problem I personally faced: why could I listen to podcasts for hours but quit book summary apps after minutes? Most summary apps feel like rushed lectures with robotic narration. Bookasto delivers podcast-style book summaries in under 20 minutes that feel natural, engaging, and designed for retention.
Key Features
🎧 Podcast-Style Narration: Natural, human-like audio — no robotic text-to-speech
📚 Diverse Library: 1000+ summaries across 10+ life themes — from productivity to philosophy, not just business
💡 Built for Retention: Thoughtfully crafted to help you remember and apply insights, not just consume faster
⏰ Time-Conscious: Quality summaries that fit your busy schedule — all under 20 minutes
📱 Mobile-First: Perfect for commutes, workouts, or any downtime
Who It's For
✨ Busy professionals who want to keep learning but lack time for full books
🎓 Students and lifelong learners seeking engaging, retainable content
🏃♂️ Anyone who prefers audio learning and wants to build consistent learning habits
📈 People looking to apply book insights practically, not just tick boxes
Our Story & Mission
Over the past 3+ months, I've personally curated every single summary, working to make each one feel like a thoughtful conversation rather than a fact checklist.
My mission is simple: make learning from books as engaging as your favorite podcast.
I'd Love Your Feedback!
❤️Thank you for checking out Bookasto — hope it adds real value to your learning journey! 🎉
Got to see the demo of Bookasto. I got to say it is just amazing. Feels like you are listening to real humans summarizing the book. Super helpful for people who are constantly on the move or have a very busy schedule.
@puru80 Thank you so much! 🙌 That means a lot. I really wanted Bookasto to feel like a real, human conversation — not just a robotic summary. So glad it resonated with you! Perfectly said — it’s made for busy, curious minds always on the go. 🚀🎧
