What sources do investors typically add?

CNBC RSS, Bloomberg public articles, Seeking Alpha free tier RSS, Financial Times, SEC EDGAR earnings feeds for specific tickers, company investor relations blogs, and financial YouTube channels like Meet Kevin or Graham Stephan.

How is this different from a financial newsletter?

Newsletters are written by a single editorial voice for a broad audience. ListenBrief creates YOUR briefing from YOUR sources — as targeted or broad as you make it. And it's audio, not text that piles up in your inbox.

Is the financial content accurate?

ListenBrief synthesizes and summarizes content from the sources you add — it doesn't generate financial opinions or recommendations. The content reflects what your sources published. Always verify before making investment decisions.

Does ListenBrief cover crypto as well as equities?

Yes. Add crypto news feeds (CoinDesk, The Block, Decrypt), on-chain data publications, and crypto YouTube channels alongside your equity sources. Many investors track both asset classes.

What time does the briefing arrive?

At 6:00 AM UTC (2 AM Eastern, 11 PM Pacific) — before US pre-market opens at 4 AM ET. You can also generate an on-demand briefing any time from the dashboard.

AI Podcast for Investors — Daily Market Intel in Your Ear

Bloomberg Terminal subscribers pay $27,000 per year to stay informed. But the terminal doesn't generate a personalized daily summary — it just gives you access to raw data and requires you to synthesize it yourself.

ListenBrief does the synthesis for you. Every morning at 6 AM UTC (2 AM Eastern, before pre-market opens), your daily investor briefing is generated from the sources you've added: news feeds, analyst newsletters, company blogs, earnings feeds, and YouTube channels. It arrives in your inbox as an MP3.

You listen on your commute. You're informed before the market opens.

Investor reality: 85% of retail investors say they don't have enough time to read all the research they need. The pre-market window (4–9 AM ET) is the highest-value information window of the trading day — but it's also when most people are just waking up and can't read.

What investors include in their briefing

Your briefing pulls from any source you define. Active investors and money managers typically track:

Financial news feeds — CNBC, Financial Times, Wall Street Journal (public RSS), Bloomberg (public articles), Barron's
Earnings and filing feeds — SEC EDGAR RSS for specific tickers, company investor relations blogs
Macro intelligence — Federal Reserve publications RSS, Treasury yield feeds, economic data releases
Analyst newsletters — Seeking Alpha, Substack finance newsletters, Goldman Sachs published research
YouTube channels — market analysis channels (Meet Kevin, Graham Stephan, Andrei Jikh, Bloomberg Technology)
Crypto feeds — CoinDesk, The Block, Decrypt for investors tracking digital assets alongside equities

Pre-market advantage: News published between 10 PM and 6 AM often moves markets at open. Earnings releases, FDA decisions, and Fed statements frequently drop overnight. Your ListenBrief briefing captures all of this before the market opens.

The right alternative to a Bloomberg Terminal

For individual investors, family offices, and independent analysts, the Bloomberg Terminal is priced for institutional users. ListenBrief is a different category: it doesn't give you real-time data or execution — it gives you a structured morning synthesis from the public sources and publications you already rely on. At $9–$39/mo, it's accessible to any serious investor.

Power subscribers ($39/mo) get a 30-minute deep briefing with cross-source analysis. If you're tracking a portfolio of 20 positions across equities, crypto, and alternative assets, a 30-minute briefing can synthesize signals across all of them from 15+ sources.
