ArticleHop was app that aggregated audio playlists of news articles and other transcribed content.
The problem I was solving was that there was so much written content that I wanted to consume, but did not have time for. So the solution I envisioned was getting that content on a play list, then having that read on audio so i could listen to it during a commute.
The way that I had planned on monetizing this was to take a cut of the fees charged by the transcribers that could be hired on the platform.
I presented the original concept at TechCrunch NY in 2013
