Shareholdr 2.0

📌

Hi PH! Today, I'm incredibly excited to announce Shareholdr! An app that lets you listen to the best startup essays, blog posts, and shareholder letters. A little background – I'm dyslexic and have always wanted to listen to PG's essays. A month ago, I was testing ElevenLabs and realized TTS had gotten really good. So, over the past month, I spent a bunch of time cleaning essays (removing things like: — _ % $ = +) to make the audio translations sound good and working with my cofounder to build an app. We currently have essays by Paul Graham, Jessica Livingston, Sam Altman, and Marc Andreessen, and will work to add more quickly. We made this for founders and it's free to use while we're in beta (also no sign-up). If you're interested, give it a try. (We'd love to hear what you think! :")

@david_sipos We're using ElevenLabs. I tested ElevenLabs, Play HT, and OpenAI, and EL was the best.

@ti_morse Thank you! Can I ask why did you choose ElevenLabs instead of Play HT? I currently using PlayHT and seems working right, and would love to know why ElevenLabs is better :)

@david_sipos Personally I liked the audio quality on Eleven more than Play. The 5k character limit isn't great though.
