@verena_ortlieb Already a user, just listen to recasts now. Will be using Chrome Ext. for capturing articles and Recast for myself. Love listening experience.

Just subscribed to their pro features, and am very impressed so far! I have most enjoyed the discover function as it has often led me to interesting articles and topics/issues outside of my normal sphere that I would otherwise not have had on my radar. In the few months I’ve been using the app, I can also appreciate the many upgrades and improvements developers are consistently delivering to elevate the experience. Overall very impressed!

Guilty of having a loooong read-later list that takes literally years before I get to it 😂 podcast format is much easier to consume

If it can solve the open tabs problem, it could be huge. :)

recast makes my news experience more manageable and insightful using AI. I particularly like the rankings feature showing which news is being most recast. I believe in the company to continue to innovate around how to make sense of the world.

Review Recast?

Reviews praise Recast for turning long reads into engaging, dialogue-style audio that’s ideal for commutes, workouts, and screen-free mornings. Users highlight natural-sounding voices, useful recommendations, and an easy share-sheet workflow. Common asks: more customization, clearer feature explanations, broader language support, and options to tweak tone/voice “temperature.” Some report regional availability issues and concerns about whether content handling respects copyright. Despite an isolated “retired” report, most say it’s reliable and time-saving, replacing overflowing read-later tabs with a curated, fast queue they actually finish.
