What is SimpleListen?
SimpleListen reads aloud the articles, newsletters, notes and AI research you want to catch up on. Send a link, paste text or forward an email, then listen on a walk, on your commute or while you cook. Your personal audio feed works in compatible podcast apps and the web player.
Does it keep the full article or summarize it?
Cleaned narration keeps the full content by default. You can have your own AI agent adapt it for listening or prepare a shorter script when you ask. SimpleListen does not research or answer questions itself.
Where can I listen?
Use the built-in web player, Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Pocket Casts, Podcast Addict or AntennaPod. Add your feed once; new episodes arrive when the player refreshes it.
Can I listen in Spotify?
SimpleListen does not currently connect to Spotify. Use Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Pocket Casts, Podcast Addict or AntennaPod to add your personal feed, or listen directly on this website.
Can it read in my language?
SimpleListen detects the source language and offers multilingual AI voices, with a manual language setting when needed. Voice quality and pronunciation vary by language; preview a voice before creating a longer episode.
How private is my listening feed?
Feeds use hard-to-guess links and are not submitted to directories. Anyone with a feed or audio link can access it, and podcast apps may cache downloads. Keep links private and avoid highly sensitive material.
Can I send answers directly from ChatGPT?
Yes. Open the Simple Listen plugin from a Connect ChatGPT button, add it in ChatGPT and link your SimpleListen account. Then ask ChatGPT to send an answer for listening, keeping all the details and the original language.
What are the ways to send something?
Paste text or a public article link on the website, forward an email to your feed’s address, or send a finished answer from a connected AI app. You can also use the API or command line. PDFs and scans are not supported.

Your next episode can start with something you already wanted to read.
