Focus Feed turns long essays and podcasts into a layered summary: one headline you can open point-by-point, down to the finest details.
What it does today
- Expand any point. Each item is a one-line summary; open it to drill into the full argument underneath.
- Go to source. Click the link icon on any point to see it highlighted in the full transcript or article.
- Triage. Keep an item in your feed, Save it to your Library, or Remove it — your choices are remembered.
- Stays fresh on its own. New Substack posts and podcast episodes are summarized automatically.
- Add to your feed. Paste an article link, PDF, or text and it’s essentialized into your feed within a minute.
Not yet / in progress
- A few very long podcasts (multi-hour shows) and YouTube-only shows aren’t auto-transcribed yet — they appear with a calm Pending label and get synced manually.
- Paywalled posts aren’t included — free content only for now.
Coming next
- Adding YouTube & podcast links. Article links, PDFs and text work today; video/audio links need to be transcribed first, so they’re coming once that pipeline is in.
- Your own personalized feed — a curated set of sources per reader.
- Full transcription of long shows, more sources, and polish.
