After a full month of closed beta, @missagla and I have just made readable.fm open to the public! We fixed a lot of quirks 🛠️, improved our pricing model 💰 and shipped a new landing page ✨ Feel free to try, RT, and give us feedback 🤗 #buildinpublic

I'm excited to share with you what the landing page of @readable will look like later this week! ✨ About 4 days of work on this page: @missagla in Figma and me in VSCode :) 👫 This is a huge milestone as readable will then be open to the public! 🌍 #buildinpublic

I asked ChatGPT to improve our landing copywriting, with a "catchy tone"! 🤖 I can tell you that with this shiny and top-notch tool, we got you covered! (we also have your back!) 🔥 Let's take it to the next level 🚀 Bingo-bullshit is only a prompt away 🫠 #buildinpublic

I'm working on event tracking on @readablefm today. I already did it on two projects before, so I developed some reflexes. 💪 Here is how I do it: 1. No client-side tracking. This is the easy way, but not reliable as a lot of browsers disable 3rd party libraries Next in 🧵 👇

Here is the result of my text-to-speech-to-text experiment! 🤖 readable.fm/p/memorable-podc… I wrote a fictive conversation, generated audio to produce a podcast episode, and then ran it through readable 😀 We will use it as a demo on our new landing page

Just improved the mobile experience of @readablefm by bringing support for native iOS lock screen artwork and controls ⏯️ (while recording and unlocking my phone, I've almost been caught by the FaceID but I think I handled it gracefully 😅) /cc @reworkpodcast #buildinpublic

We just shipped our new widget on @readablefm 🚀 Next step: allow our users to customize the website's colors 🎨 #buildinpublic

Who is building in public with Elixir? 🧪 I already know a few names such as @benvp_ @marcelfahle or @codestirring But I'd love to discover more! 👀 Please reply with new accounts to follow :) #buildinpublic #myelixirstatus

I'm writing documentation to help @readablefm users embed our widget in their websites. I already wrote guides for WordPress and Ghost. What do you think would be the next? #buildinpublic

Documenting how to integrate @readablefm's widget is more tedious than expected! But we don't want to compromise on SEO, so it's a bit more complex than just dropping a Youtube iframe. Next step: documenting setup in a WordPress site #buildinpublic

After 2 weeks of private beta, we had many feedbacks on @readablefm 🙏 - UX issues - copywriting issues - current pricing model is bad We're fixing everything, shipping a new widget to embed readable on your site. Public launch expected in a couple of weeks 🚀 #buildinpublic

Some call it Karma Some others call it "maximizing opportunity surface" (👋 @arvidkahl ) This afternoon I was invited by a local real estate agency to record a 10mn testimonial 💬 The place was a podcast agency 😁 I demoed @readablefm and their jaw dropped 🔥 #buildinpublic

We just shipped @readablefm responsive UI ✨ It was a bit of work, but fortunately, we have our back covered by @tailwindcss I hope you'll appreciate our new minified audio player ⏯️ 😀 #buildinpublic

I'm looking for a marketing (email-based) automation tool. 🤖 I basically want a REST API to post my user's events, and a UI to design HTML emails and build workflows to send emails based on my user's activity. Any suggestion? 🙏 #buildinpublic

This weekend, we'll be iterating on the mobile version of readable For now, we focus our efforts on the public podcast pages. The responsive back-office can wait :) I'm always amazed by how TailwindCSS makes it easy to turn a website into a responsive one ✨

Just sent a very small batch of invitations to our private beta 🥳 Exciting times coming! 🔥 (drop me a DM if you want to be part of the beta!) #buildinpublic

Just added @cannyHQ integration to our product. Full setup, including a custom changelog button + single-sign-on takes about 30mn to set up. #buildinpublic

Feeling better and started coding again 💪 I just took a spin on our HTML email templates. 💌 Once again I used MJML which is a wonderful responsive email framework available in a lot of languages. mjml.io/ #buildinpublic

First sale 🎉 🥳 (I know this is test mode and that I'm my own customer, but can I still enjoy the confetti?) #buildinpublic

Just coded the account dropdown menu. One step closer to implementing subscription. #buildinpublic
