Pocket is dead. Instapaper is stagnant. Speechify wants $139/yr. speakeasy is a different answer: paste any URL, get beautiful audio, listen instead of reading. • Paste a URL → instant audio • Beautiful, natural-sounding voices • Saves and syncs across all your Apple devices • Share from Safari in 2 taps • Subscribe to newsletters and RSS feeds • Multiple voices and playback speeds Built for the articles you save but never get around to reading.
Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Nim — maker of speakeasy 🎙️
I saved thousands of articles to Pocket over 10 years. Read almost none of them. 📚
When Mozilla killed it, I thought: okay, Instapaper... Readwise... But the real problem was never where to save articles — it's that I never have time to sit down and read them.
So I rebuilt the experience from scratch 🚀
🎧 Paste any URL → beautiful audio in seconds
🚂 Listen anywhere — commute, gym, doing dishes
☁️ Syncs to all your Apple devices automatically
📰 Any content — newsletters, Substack, long-reads, blogs
🎛️ Multiple voices & speeds — find your perfect listen
Anything with a URL becomes listenable. That's it.
Happy to answer anything. What would you want to listen to first? 🎧
@sup_nim Congrats on the launch! 🎉 This is exactly the problem — I have hundreds of saved articles I never get to. The Pocket graveyard is real. Love the focus on audio quality and native Apple sync rather than trying to be another all-in-one read-later tool. As an iOS developer myself (building OceanMind, an AI-powered breathwork app), I really appreciate when someone just solves one thing well. Going to try it on my commute today. Question: do you handle paywalled content at all, or is it purely URL-based?
launching march 19 — would love early feedback before then if anyone wants to try it. speakeasy.studio.gold
if you have a reading list thats getting out of hand (or use pocket / instapaper / readwise) this might be useful. happy to answer any questions here
