Cntxt Labs (pronounced “context”)
A software company, based in New Zealand the most beautiful place in the world.
txtpod is for people who save more than they have time to read. It turns articles, links and PDFs into episodes in your own private podcast feed, so the reading list becomes something you can listen to on a walk, a drive or while you cook.
It reads the whole piece, word for word, in a natural voice, with the ads and clutter taken out. It is the article itself, not a summary. Save from the share sheet, the web app or a bookmarklet, or bring in what you already saved in Instapaper, Matter and Readwise. New episodes appear in Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Overcast, Pocket Casts or any other player, next to your regular shows.
There are more than thirty voices across more than twenty languages, and articles in other languages can be translated and read to you in yours. txtpod can also research a topic you are curious about and narrate a full episode on it, or brief you every morning on the subjects you follow. It works on iPhone, iPad and in your browser.
