Product Hunt Rigel
Hi folks ๐,
today Alberto and I are launching Rigel, a GPT-3 Powered Content Aggregator.
๐บ Problem
We read an article stating that every year, on average, people spend on Social Media the equivalent time of reading 200 books!
Yeah, an astonishing figure. We thought it too.
We started thinking about it and realized there was a flaw in the reasoning: Social Media content is usually consumed in short bursts, whereas books require your attention for a longer period of time.
The 2 things were comparable on a cumulated time level, but not on a practical one.
So, what if we could provide users with informative and cultural content, consumable is short bursts?
๐ Solution
Here comes the idea of Rigel, named after the 7th brightest star in our sky (the first 6 were already taken, joking ๐).
Rigel is a multimedia content aggregator (articles and videos, and coming soon podcasts) with the goal of delivering curated and validated content that you can easily consume on your smartphone, wherever you want.
No more googling, no more single-magazine browsing, no more news overloading.
Open Rigel, browse the feed and read or watch the content you find more interesting.
๐ Why Rigel?
- Not YANA (Yet Another News Aggregator): Rigel includes only curated and validated content from the most renown sources on the web that doesnโt get old tomorrow;
- AI Powered: Rigel integrates with Open AIโs GPT-3 to generate short abstracts for long articles, making them super easy to consume;
- Curated: we do the scout of the sources, we do the validation of the content, you just enjoy it;
- Multimedia: Rigel offers content in the form of articles and videos. Soon weโll feature Podcasts too;
โญ Next
In the next months we will integrate Podcast sources, add new categories and give more AI capabilities to Rigel, exploiting the power of GPT-3.
