Hey HN, cofounder of Readwise here. We've been working on this cross-platform reader app for about 2 years, excited to finally share it in public beta.

pipeRead▲102Hi HN, Piperead is a free web tool that uses AI to act as a personalized librarian. Instead of just genre tags, we use specific "personas" to generate recommendations. The goal was to make something simple, fast, and free. Because we achieved to keep minimum cost. The site is live at https://piperead.com We are trying to fine-tune the recommendation quality.

Hi HN! I've been working on BookWith, an open-source e-book reader that integrates AI as your reading companion. The problem: Traditional e-readers are passive.

My solution: BookWith embeds an AI that maintains full context of what you're reading. It features: - Context-aware AI chat: Ask questions about the current page/chapter and get instant answers - AI podcast generation: Automatically converts book…
