Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Jayson, one of the makers of Ledes. This project started out from my own frustration. I found myself getting completely overwhelmed by modern news. It's hard for me to stay up-to-date with what's happening around the world. I'm constantly bombarded with sensationalized headlines, clickbait, and endless feeds, yet when I actually want to understand why something happened, I'm left digging through fluff or jumping across ten different tabs between apps. My friend and I built Ledes to completely redefine how high-signal information is consumed. Instead of endlessly scrolling, Ledes acts as your personal AI news agent that lets you Listen, Engage, Delve, Explore, and Speak (that's why we name it Ledes). Here is what makes Ledes different: - Bite-Sized Audio Briefs: Get synthesized, commute-ready audio overviews of top stories in Tech, Business, and beyond. - Real-Time Interactive Q&A: Don't just read the story—ask follow-up questions directly to the news agent to get instant background context and deeper analysis. - Hands-Free Voice Control: Talk to your news companion on the go without looking at your screen. I can even dive deep into any news with my hands on the wheel (My favourite feature) - Podcasts: Interesting topics like Weekly Tech, Historic events and we are still curating more. We’re live today on both the App Store and Google Play! We’d love for the PH community to give it a spin and let us know: What news topics or categories would you like to see covered deeper? How does the news agent feel compared to traditional news apps, especially the hands-free mode? I’ll be here all day answering questions, taking feature requests, and chatting with you all. Excited to hear your thoughts! 🚀
