Neat. I've two things to say, 1. How do you feel about AI catching up with reading? I use pocket's text to speech, or iOS's screen reader, which although robotic, seems to be improving rapidly? 2. Do you have any plans for web version ? I've this tendency to read and listen simultaneously. I think it forces me to really focus.

Thanks! 1. AI is definitely improving in this area. We watch this space closely, but based on user feedback so far, it seems that AI voices are perceived as very monotonous, and thus it is not enjoyable to listen to them for more than 10-15 min. 2. Listle is already available on the web at https://www.listle.io/ https://www.listle.io/ -- scroll down to "Sign in here" link. We also have a chrome extension which allows you to see if a particular page / article you are on already has a human-read audio version. If it doesn't, it creates an AI powered audio for you: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/listle-request-extension/blfedacoclompomaiedgmlpakbjblkdi?hl=en https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/listle-request-ext...
