Hey PH! Super excited to launch Essen, a Chrome extension that helps you read news smarter and 10x faster. Also want to include a special offer to the PH community: FREE for 30 days! 🎉🎉🎉 I started Essen with the vision of redefining reading with the help of AI. Think about it, if humans are able to highlight important pieces and benefit others (like the top highlights in Kindle and Medium), why can’t machines do it? In fact a machine, properly trained and programmed, can do this almost as good as can a human now, thanks to advances in AI. With Essen, you only read key pieces you need. Essen is not to replace reading, but rather uses machine learning to analyze semantics, extract highly important pieces, and highlight them so you can read these with 10% of your time. Hope you’ll find it as useful and I’d also love to get some feedback 🙏
