Description of Recast

More you want to read online than you could ever find time for? Introducing Recast - the AI-powered app that converts online articles, blogs, and essays into concise and easy-to-absorb audio explainers you can listen to on the go. With Recast, you'll save time while staying informed and learning new things. How it works: * Submit articles you want to be converted to recasts * Browse recasts that other users have submitted * Listen to concise and engaging audio summaries of any topic Recast solves several problems for those who are high on curiosity and low on time, overwhelmed by the sheer amount of content out there. Other apps that try to help you consume news as audio tend to read out the article text verbatim. We don't think this is very easy to absorb. That's why Recast uses AI to condense the key context and takeaways of an article into just a few minutes of friendly and conversational audio. With Recast, you'll discover great new content and submit your own. It's perfect for people who already listen to podcasts or audiobooks and want to stay informed and learn new things without sacrificing time from their busy lives. Download Recast today and start recasting your favorite articles into informative audio summaries.

Reviews of Recast

Leave a Review Recast
  • Buggy

    It doesn’t seem to work that well. I feel like I am forever encountering bugs that either don’t create the recast or gives me error messages.
  • The free version is simply an annoyance

    Without a subscription you can pick or search your articles. Just what I want cluttering my phone an that feeds lots of content that I don’t want.
  • Unuseable

    Subscribed for the 7 day Pro trial. Kept telling me I needed to be a pro subscriber or the recast would just fail. Tried multiple sources. I’ll stick with Matter or Readwise.
