How do you ensure accuracy when the AI comments on complex topics like economics, philosophy, or science?

Jin Shang

@qiwap We have a knowledge base for each persona with all the articles, books, speeches and other works for AI to refer to. This essentially prevents hallucision compared to just using the model pretrained data itself

I used it for fiction and loved how the AI companion picked up emotional shifts I totally missed.

Jin Shang

@harlan_at_timedomain Thanks! Understanding the subtext of books is a key feature Readever aims to provide.

"The 'dinner party' concept is such a cool hook. 🤯 I'm really curious to see how the AI mentors debate each other—does the AI actually mimic their specific rhetorical styles? Definitely trying this out. It makes reading feel less lonely."

@jotaro_kujo thanks so much!! 🥹 the “dinner party” vibe is exactly what we’re going for.

on the mentor debates, yes… we try to keep each mentor’s voice consistent in tone and reasoning, so the discussion feels like distinct perspectives instead of one generic ai

Really nice work, this looks clean and well done.

Just curious, have you ever worked with social media influencers to help show people how the software works and get more eyes on it?

Yum

@noenex_media Thanks so much! really appreciate the kind words 🙏

And yes, we’ve been thinking about working with social media influencers, but we haven’t found the right creators to partner with yet. We’re actively planning it now.

If you have any influencer recommendations (especially creators who love reading, AI tools, productivity, or studying), I’d love to hear them! 😊

reading is usually such a solitary thing, so this is a cool way to gamify it a bit. definitely going to try reading some sci-fi with the Elon persona to see if he tears apart the physics lol.

Jin Shang

@tony_hsieh2 Lol I would definitely try it too

The memory system remembering my earlier confusion was surprisingly helpful.

Jin Shang

@hy_s1 Yeah that's one of the top "aha moments" our users get while reading!

Juliana Zhang

Congrats on the launch! I'm curious about the workflow after reading, do you currently support exporting highlights or book notes to Notion or syncing with Readwise?

Jin Shang

@xinyue_zhang3 Currently no but we are working on this feature!

Tony Yan

cool. AI highlighted some patterns I hadn’t noticed. How can I customize or choose my own character ?

Yum

@tony_yan_1111 yes!!! you can pick your character in the dashboard 💃 we don’t support creating custom characters yet, but it’s on our roadmap... stay tuned!!!

Congratulations on the launch of Readever! Honestly, your product positioning really caught my eye—it’s a rare and genuinely innovative product. I’ve already thought of many fun and interesting ways to use it, like having Jobs read his own biography with me and then asking him how he felt at different moments in his life. Keep it up!

Jin Shang

@jackyliu Thank you! Readever aims to turn tedious and lonely reading into an immersive and inspring experience. With Readever, you can finally finish the book you've always wanted to read.

How large is the book catalog, and how does the public library integration function for users?

Jin Shang

@yuki1028 Currently we have a library of over 50000 titles but we are quickly expanding our catalog.
