Show HN: Sornic – Turn any article into a podcast in 10 seconds
sornic.com
Hello HN folks- maker here,
I built Sornic because I have 100+ saved articles I never read. Now I listen to them while commuting.
How it works: - Paste any article URL - Mozilla Readability extracts content - Claude Haiku cleans it up (removes "subscribe", ads, etc.) - OpenAI TTS generates natural audio
Free to use, 5 articles/day, no signup.
Stack: Next.js, Upstash Redis, Vercel
What I'd love feedback on: - Which sites don't work (so I can improve extraction) - Voice quality preferences - Would you pay for unlimited?
Thanks for trying it!
