I used to be an avid user of Umano (RIP), an app that paid voice actors to read news articles and blog posts. That was almost a decade ago and ofc the tech to generate high-quality, humanlike narration has improved a ton. Recast doesn't rely on people and can narrate any article. It's definitely worth a try. :) Side note: Instagram cofounders are also exploring audio narration features with Artifact. I'm very interested to see if it becomes a core focus for them or more of a side feature.

Roundups

@rrhoover Artifact seems like they are just bolting on ML / AI features on to an old concept to see what sticks, but at the end of the day it’s another D2C news aggregator, just with some interesting features that everyone else can also bolt on.

Hey Hunters! 😽😽😽 As a startup marketer always striving to stay on top of the trend, getting through my articles has always been a daunting challenge. Since I've been using Recast, though, my life has changed! It's like having my personal podcast team summarize all my tech articles and newsletters into short, engaging conversations. 🎧 Stoked to have played a small part in Recast's first PH launch, and a big kudos to the Recast team for creating something truly game-changing! 👏

Hey Product Hunt community! 👋 First off, thank you for checking out Recast. It's a product that’s close to our hearts, born out of a personal need. We’ve all felt that overwhelming sense of drowning in a sea of tabs, bookmarks, and read-later apps. The internet is bursting with incredible content, but who has the time to read it all? That's where the idea for Recast came from. We wanted to create a way for everyone to consume content more easily, without spending hours staring at a screen. Recast transforms articles and essays into bite-sized audio conversations. It’s like having two knowledgeable friends chat about a topic you care about, making it both engaging and informative. Over the last months, we’ve poured our souls into refining the experience. The feedback we've received from early users – from thinkpiece enthusiasts to students, to those with visual or reading difficulties – has been heartwarming. It's humbling to know Recast has brought joy and value to so many. But, we know the journey doesn't end here. We’re excited to introduce Recast to the Product Hunt community and gather more feedback. Please give it a try, and let us know your thoughts. We’re here to answer any questions, and we're keen to hear about your experiences with Recast. Thank you for being a part of our launch day. Let's redefine the way we consume written content, together! Warmly, Adam (CEO Cofounder, Recast)

I like very much how the dialog style makes the casts a lot more listenable than straight article readings. Well done! If you need a way to get articles read to you as podcasts, this is definitely worth a try

I use Recast every day. I love consuming news and interesting articles but sometimes just don't have the time to read them all, so I recast them and listen in the car. There is no other app like this... It's amazing how I get my own little "podcast" with a couple hosts discussing the article in detail.

Hey there, Recast team! Congratulations on the launch! Can I submit articles from any source, like Medium or news websites, for conversion into audio? Also, how natural does the AI-generated dialogue sound? Really curious to give this a spin!

Hi Sahinur, you can listen to recasts created by others on the recast website.
