What is FWD AUDIO?
FWD AUDIO is a service designed for individuals who struggle to find time for reading extensive content such as academic papers, newsletters, and long-form articles. It converts these text-based materials into high-quality, natural-sounding audio episodes, effectively turning your reading list into a personal podcast feed.
By leveraging advanced text-to-speech technology, FWD AUDIO ensures a pleasant listening experience, moving beyond robotic voices. Users can add content via RSS or Atom feeds, ensuring they stay updated with the latest publications, news, or blog posts in their field. The generated audio, along with the original text (available in show notes or on the website), is delivered directly to the user's chosen podcast application, allowing for convenient consumption during commutes, workouts, or other spare moments.
