Could you build this?
Partial Building the mobile reader UI and audio player is straightforward, but legally acquiring or creating hundreds of high-quality, non-hallucinatory summaries with synchronized voice tracks requires significant editorial and copyright compliance effort.
What it would actually take: Technically, the app is a Flutter or React Native mobile client backed by a relational database and TTS pipelines (like ElevenLabs). However, producing accurate 15-minute summaries without copyright infringement requires human editorial curation or heavily fine-tuned, chapter-by-chapter extraction pipelines with strict factual verification, along with automated audio-to-text alignment (e.g., using Whisper timestamps). The primary challenge is high-volume content operations and legal clearance rather than standard app code.
