## What is Glance?

Hours of audio? We melt it down to minutes of mastery.

What Glance does
- Ask anything. “Why did CRCL pump?” “What did Cathie actually say about leverage?”
- Get the answer before the host finishes the sentence
- Jump to the exact second the insight happens
- Skim smart highlight cards for the biggest ideas, zero slogging required

Why it feels unfair
We scan the audio, slice the insight, and hand it to you while everyone else is still hunting timestamps. 
Make no mistake, that’s not magic. It’s just leverage.

Respect creators
We stream straight from public sources, cite every insight, and never resell your show. Your voice, your rules – our AI just points the spotlight.

Stop listening. Start Glancing.
