Hello Product Hunt world!
We launched Audm last August, and since then we've built a user base of over 10,000. Most of our users aren't in tech, though.
The truth is, we've been a little shy with tech folks. Startupy people are all about podcasts, not audiobooks, right? And Audm is a lot closer to audiobooks in some ways.
But we've been learning that people who love podcasts can turn out to love Audm too. People who love audiobooks *especially* do. We're even loved by a few people who never listen to any other kind of digital spoken word content. It takes all kinds.
We're eager to know what you think. Please help us spread the word!

Why hasn't this absolutely exploded? It's fantastic. I love it and I don't even have an Apple device. Some seriously awesome narrators. It's free. There are some fantastic stories there - and exclusive to this app. The co-founders are great. JE NE REGRETTE RIEN! (apart from not having an iPhone :-( )
As an Android user, I haven't had the chance to try Audm yet... but I have several friends who found it independently, and are huge fans!

Huge fan of Audm. For the past few years I've really enjoyed the "immersion reading" experience from Amazon of reading a Kindle book while listening to the audiobook. Audm brings that experience to the best pieces of long form journalism from the best publications. After going through the free trial, the upgrade to premium was an easy call. Great product.
Two more things to note about Audm:
1. We use the best audiobook narrators in the business.
