Out of free articles? Zette gives you access to paywalled articles at more than 100 publications with one click–all while sharing revenue with newsrooms. Add Zette extension to your browser and start enjoying easy access to the facts!

👋🏻Hey Product Hunt! I’m Yehong, the Founder & CEO here at Zette. We’re democratizing access to high-quality journalism by allowing readers to unlock article paywalls with one click, all while sharing revenue with newsrooms. The seeds for Zette were planted when I was at Forbes. At the time, digital content was largely free, and the margins on advertising were razor-thin. As a result, publishers began transitioning to subscription paywalls. But paywalls aren’t a perfect solution. It’s unrealistic to ask readers to pay for unlimited access across every news site. So I thought, there must be a better way 💡 Zette's browser extension gives you one-click access to the news you want to read, across hundreds of our publisher partners. It’s simple: 👨‍💻 Browse the internet—until you hit a paywall 💕 Unlock with one click via Zette 🤓 Read on! We’d love for you to give Zette a spin. Start your free trial by heading over to our website. You can easily extend your free trial with one click by sharing articles with your friends! Cheers, Yehong Zhu Website: https://www.zette.com/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@yehong.zhu Twitter: https://twitter.com/YehongZhu

Hey guys do you have an app commin?

@pavlin Working on it 😉

@umurcanyilmaz @pavlin Coming spring 2023 ;)

So excited for this product!! Do you mind explaining how you support journalists and publishers? I’ve used similar products but was always unsure if journalists were really getting paid for their work.

@jenny_green Thanks Jenny! It's a foundational part of Zette to ensure we support journalism. That's why we utilize a generous revenue share agreement so that journalists are paid for every click.

@jenny_green Hi Jenny! Our agreements with our publisher partners make sure that for each unlocked article with Zette, we share up to half of the revenue with them.

@umurcanyilmaz up to half? That includes $0 😆

@stephaniehenry Hope this will help☺️ the mathematical formula is, 50% >= Zette's revenue share > 0

Zette is what I wish I had for years. I wish they had more publications on the platform but I’m confident that will come in time as they gain popularity and those publications are forced to play ball.

Thanks so much Caroline! Stay tuned as we add more publisher partners frequently.

I love how zette is democratizing content access which is more important than ever now.

Absolutely, glad you see the mission! Thanks Cordelia!
