Type something you're curious about. Fylom researches it, writes it, and narrates it into a real episode you can listen to in minutes. Follow a topic and it becomes a recurring show. Try it without an account, or sign in for the full thing.
I m building Fylom around a simple idea: tell it what you re curious about, and it researches the topic, writes it, and turns it into a personal episode.
Early users have used it to learn about niche work topics during their commute, get up to speed before a meeting, and follow a curiosity when they didn t have time to sit down and read.
Tried it out on my drive to work this week. I asked for something pretty specific, how to actually interpret a lung function DLCO result with the science behind it, and it just made me an episode on it. Listened to the whole thing on the way in. Way better than trying to get through a paper at 11pm. I also loved that it didn't sound like a robot voice reading bullet points at me.
What needs improvement
I would love to be able to ask it specific question mid episode to elaborate on something I didn't understand. If it could pause and quickly elaborate, then go back to the episode that would be a game changer but still handy I can just ask for an episode on that question afterwards.
I tried notebook lm, but found the setup a bit slow having to find the documents/papers and upload them. I just needed something for the drive home and didn't have time to do all that upfront. I liked that I could just tell it what I needed to learn and it did the research side for me.
This app is beautiful, simple to use and seriously enjoyable and helpful! Some days I'm not when I'm not feeling very creative and don't have a topic in mind, I can jump into the app and browse the episodes pre-made in the Discover section of the app.
Customisation!!! Episodes catered uniquely to my niche areas of thought!

Thanks for the review Megan. So glad you find the public episodes interesting. That category "Great lives" is actually one of my favourites. So many interesting stories of brilliant people I have never even heard of.

Hi Product Hunt,
Fylom is a personalised podcast app for people who prefer to learn by listening.
I built it because I wanted a simpler way to learn through audio. Finding the right podcast or setting aside time to read was often the difficult part.
Using Fylom is simple:
Tell it what you want to learn about
Choose the episode length and voice
Listen when your episode is ready a few minutes later
People are using Fylom to learn about niche work topics during their commute, prepare for meetings, study away from a screen, and follow whatever they happen to be curious about.
The app includes:
First 30 minutes free; for custom episodes generated from your topics
Episodes generated across the platform that anyone can explore
Scheduled shows for topics you want to follow regularly
A personalised selection based on what you listen to
Fylom is available on the App Store and Google Play. You can listen to platform episodes and generate 30 minutes of your own episodes for free, without signing in.
For the launch, the code LAUNCH gives you one month of Pro free until September 30
The main thing I’d like to understand from this launch is where Fylom could fit into other people’s lives.
What would your first Fylom episode be about, and when would you listen?

This app is super cool! Love tailored learnings! Being able to dive deep on super random niche topics that my weird and wonderful brain muses about like, 'how do dreams work' or 'explore the difference between joy & happiness' to industry-specific topics like 'why Australia's CDR rollout is so painfully slow compared to UK Open Banking' 🤪
Equally great when I'm in a not-so-creative mood and can find little gem episodes in the Discovery section of the app! Well done!! 👏🏼
