This newsletter was brought to you byElevenLabsFlipboard’s new app, now with 100M monthly users 👀
Flipboard first launched in 2010 as one of the first “gorgeous” mobile experiences on the iPhone. It came out with a boom and everyone in tech downloaded it. 6+ years later, these same people ask, “Who still uses Flipboard?”
Answer: 100 million people every month.
Flipboard is one of the largest social networks yet it’s rarely part of the conversation in tech… except for today. CEO, Mike McCue, just introduced the fourth generation of the curation platform, now with Smart Magazines and Video. Check it out. 👀

So we’re just… talking to software now?
ElevenLabs has been the go-to for voice for a while. Now they've turned that expertise into agents that actually get things done. You set one up, it talks like a real person, listens, responds, and helps handle the task — support calls, bookings, whatever the job is. Not a demo, not a "press 1 for sales" situation. It's ready to deploy. Feels like one of those shifts where the interface quietly changes. Less typing, less clicking, more just saying what needs to happen and letting it play out.
