Instapaper is the purest read-later app ever made. Clean design. Beautiful typography. Distraction-free reading.
But “read later” means “read never” for most of your saves.
Instapaper users are intentional readers. You don’t save clickbait — you save the long, thoughtful essays that deserve focused attention. The 6,000-word Atlantic feature. The detailed startup postmortem. The research deep-dive you found at 11pm.
The paradox: the better the content, the more likely it stays unread. Great articles demand focused time. Focused time is the scarcest resource.
audiclip works with your Instapaper workflow.
You keep using Instapaper for the articles you DO want to read visually. audiclip handles the rest — the ones that would otherwise sit in your queue for months.
Not everything is better as audio. Here’s how to think about it:
Better as audio (save to audiclip):
Better as text (keep in Instapaper):
Save articles in any language in Instapaper. Listen in your preferred language via audiclip. 100+ languages supported.
Save the best for reading. Listen to the rest.
