@greg_smith15 I like the idea
Do you turn to audio posts with or without comments? Feels like some "threads" if you get only post don't make much sense, while posts with announcements got many comments without value for listeners.

Hi Greg,
I came across Readsss on Product Hunt and the concept instantly resonated with me! As a busy professional who relies on staying informed, the idea of converting reading time into listening time is fantastic.
The ability to consume content on the go through audio summaries is a major advantage for busy schedules. The focus on safe content consumption and personalization through curated lists is commendable.
I'm eager to become a power user of Readsss and provide feedback on:
- How well does Readsss translate text to natural-sounding audio while maintaining information accuracy?
- Does the length and comprehensiveness of the audio summaries cater to different needs (quick updates vs. in-depth insights)?
As a full-stack developer who heavily relies on content consumption, here are some additional feature ideas:
- The ability to integrate Readsss summaries with project management tools for easy reference.
- Utilizing AI to recommend content from new sources based on user preferences and existing content consumption habits.
Overall, Readsss has the potential to revolutionize how busy professionals stay informed. I'd be happy to contribute as a power user and brainstorm further feature ideas.
I'm signing up for Readsss today and look forward to experiencing it firsthand. Keep up the fantastic work!
Best regards,
Max
@kostyabolsh 100% agree. MVP needed to be posts only, but we would like to incorporate that ability to listen to Threads as well. If we can get a little proof of concept that will be the next step.
Congrats on the launch of Readsss! Very interesting idea and definitely will save my eyes when I want to look at content on X easily while commuting. However, I sometimes find listening takes longer to digest the same amount of content than skimming/browsing. Is there a way to change the speed and voice?
@kehui_guo Hey Kehui! Yep we offer that standard 1x 1.25x 1.5x speeds just like a podcast and right now we only offer a few voices, but we also offer language translation too! Thanks for the comment!
