We’re the team behind Meco, the newsletter reading app that has helped free over 3 million newsletters from inbox chaos. We built BriefPod after hearing one thing again and again: keeping up with the news feels like a chore.
Now we’re on a mission to change that and reimagine how smart people stay informed, without the noise.

@mogabr Really happy that it will bring you more time! Thanks so much Gabe!
Wow, this sounds really cool! Correct me if I'm wrong - sounds like Blinkist but for podcasts? :D
Meco
@mia_k1 That is a really cool way of describing BriefPod - "Blinkest for your newsletters and news!". Love that - thank you for the idea!
@sean_mccarney1 haha you're welcome!!

Just downloaded the app and tried it out. Beautiful and effortless onboarding and a very smooth experience - going to try it for a few days to see if I can make this a habit. As a product, I think hyper-personalised news delivered as a podcast is something that's going to take off - good luck with the launch!
Meco
@ragsontherocks Thanks Rags, really appreciate your support! Very much agree that hyper-personalised news is the future!

@jiteshghanchi Thanks Jitesh - glad you're enjoying it :)
Congrats on the launch! Can't wait for Android app. Does it work with only newsletters on your platform and not newsletters in my email?
Meco
@sahithkrishna_an Hey Sahith - we give everyone a newBriefPod email address and you can use it to subscribe to any newsletter or publication you like. So essentially you can use it with any newsletter!
I made a separate gmail account just for newsletters and even that ended up being a graveyard of unread mails. I somehow always end up falling behind when trying to catch up with news. I really appreciate your efforts in building this! Love the idea of a 10 min audio summary.
Congratulations on the launch Sean!
Meco
@pranay12 Really appreciate it! Hopefully we can help turn that graveyard into valuable learnings for you!
