Is this TTS? I tried getting into Curio.io for a while, but the audio format article genre is very hard to make into a unique product category. Especially when the big news organisations such as WSJ, Economist and The Guardian have their own audio versions of articles.
- cristinaibunea 7y agoHey! We're not using text-to-speech, all of the narrations we have so far (around 4000 audio articles) are recorded by people. We're currently doing a mix of both news and content that's more on the evergreen side (science, books, startups, self-dev). The aim here is to basically create a huge library of audio content on a wide range of topics and be able to make recommendations to users, based on what they're usually interested in. Thanks a lot for the feedback, it's very highly appreciated!
- stevenicr 7y agoIf I recall, there was an HN thread a while back where it was discussed that humans are hired to read the stories that are the most popular.. or something like that.. added it to my bookmarks, and considered doing some reads for it, but have not been back there yet.
