What great articles or essays have you read (or meant to!) lately?
One of our First Round companies, Recast, is launching here today.
https://www.producthunt.com/post...
The Recast app turns articles into bite-size audio convos w/AI so you can “read more” without reading ✨. It’s great for powering through read-later backlogs, and the app has thousands already recasted to browse.
In honor of this, I want your help to fill up my Recast queue: what great pieces have you all read lately—or meant to read, but not found the time for?
Drop a link to any article/blog/essay below and the team will reply with a converted Recast. I’ll go first! Here are recasts of two recent top First Round review pieces.
A Founder’s Guide to Assessing Strengths and Weaknesses

‘Give Away Your Legos’ and Other Commandments for Scaling Startups

I'm always inspired by the blog articles of Tally as a builder:)

@atsuhiro_teshima good one!
Here's a 7 min audio version of "Year 1 — How we bootstrapped Tally to 11k users and $5k" from MRR Tally's blog converted using recast app.

@a18n Hi Adam, the app is super cool. I noticed that initial audio loading took some time, but after that smooth experience:)
If we find a way to integrate Recast with popular content bookmarking and written content sources, the value of Recast would be even greater.
For example, funnelling:
- Pocket.com, readwise, and other bookmarked content into Recast
- Substacks and Beehivs newsletters directly into Recast
- PDFs and Amazon ebooks into Recast
- And even long threads from Slack, MS Teams, and even slide decks into Recast
Sky's the limit! :)
We also have a lot of recasts already in the app to browse and enjoy. And to learn new things. For example, do you know why cats purr??
After this recast you do:

This is one of my favorite articles somebody submitted today: "Young People Have No Idea What We Used to Do After Work. Let Me Regale You." from Slate https://app.letsrecast.ai/r/d07d...
I queue hours worth of recasts for my long drives and mornings in the bathroom! These days I just add from their recommendations - best article exploration tool!

For the studious bunch like me who prioritize productivity, the ASUS ROG Strix Z590-E is a game-changer. Its lightning-fast connectivity options and efficient cooling design ensure that I can seamlessly switch between research, coding, and even the occasional gaming break. It's a productivity powerhouse that students can rely on. https://justmotherboard.com/best...
An essay is a written piece of literature that provides a platform for individuals to articulate their thoughts, ideas, and arguments on a particular subject or topic. It is a form of communication and expression that involves comprehensive https://washingtoncitypaper.com/... research, critical analysis, and the systematic organization of information. Essays come in various types, including argumentative, descriptive, narrative, and expository, enabling writers to engage with their audience, convey a clear message, and contribute to intellectual discourse and knowledge dissemination.
