Great concept. The other day I stumbled upon https://podcastle.ai/ - I am wondering what makes your product different and how's the performance of conversion so far?

I got very excited at that link and then progressively more and more disappointed. Why do they have a slick animated ad reel with no example of the speech output? Why is there no example anywhere, even on YouTube? What's the point of this as a chrome extension when you can already say "ok Google, read aloud"?

Maybe I'm just salty that I'll never find a good solution for my favorite ebooks that never got an audiobook version.

> with no example of the speech

Right! The only thing this site needs is a "Click here to listen to a sample" and it misses its shot.

Not to be confused with https://podcastle.org/, which is a podcast of fantasy short stories.
