Hey Product Hunt! Ed here, maker of Hark News. Before you read anything, listen to 30 seconds of today's real episode: https://hark.news/briefings. It rebuilds every morning from my own newsletters, in English and Spanish. That page explains the product better than I can. The origin story is embarrassingly simple: I subscribe to 30 newsletters and read about 3. The rest sat there generating inbox guilt. I have built products since 1997 (Tiny Prints, Beau-coup), and every one started as something I personally needed. This one I needed every single morning. Hark turns the newsletters you care about into a personal 5-minute audio newscast: your city's weather up top, deep stories next, a rapid headline round to finish, read by a professional news anchor we recorded ourselves. Setup takes seconds. Pick your favorites from our curated library and we subscribe your own private Hark inbox to them for you. Already getting newsletters you love, including paid ones? Simple Gmail autoforwarding sends those to your Hark inbox too. Either way, we never access your personal email. Then the whole product is: do nothing. No app to check, no alerts to manage, no feed to tend. Every morning at the time you set, one text arrives with a link to a custom audio player built perfectly for news. Listen, skip stories like tracks on your lock screen, read the transcript if that is your thing, bookmark, share, or download for offline. Every story links to the original journalism. For the PH community: we never ask for credit card to try free for 7-days but if you message me, we'll upgrade you to one year of free use! I will be here all day. Two things I would genuinely love your take on: does the private inbox model make sense the first time you hear it, and what would make the morning ritual stick for you? Roast the anchor's delivery too. She can take it.
