Read and Give is interesting. It's like a Modern Wikipedia. I wish you the best :-)
This is such a beautifully executed idea — turning passive reading into real-world action. Most of us read the news, feel something, and then… move on. Read & Give bridges that emotional moment and gives it purpose.
I love how seamless the experience sounds — AI-powered cause detection + curated charity portfolios + unified tax receipt = zero friction, just impact. And the weekly reports are a great way to stay connected to where your money’s going.
Massive props to the team for making everyday giving feel both easy and meaningful. Definitely installing this one.
Congrats @ronch, this is wonderful!
Brilliant idea! Finaly a product that's built to do good in the world
This is sweet!
Good idea from what I see so far, but PLEASE rethink the name.
My first reaction was to research any connection to the real Bono. There does not appear to be any, and I totally get the pro bono thing. The company has (maybe/probably) created a roadblock to adoption. I don't think this was intentional, so please take this as constructive input.
Bono + Giving = an obvious bit of suspicion, IMO. However, I must admit that I unfortunately don't trust anyone in the charity space. It's suspicious at best, and deceptive at worst.
Just one man yelling at clouds ;]
Great idea! Excited to see where this goes!
