Hey! We're looking for a UGC creator to make 1 short-form test video for Summaia — an app that turns any book into an on-demand AI audio summary in minutes.

🇺🇸 US-based creators only

This is a paid test, not affiliate. If the content performs, we'll keep working together.

Compensation:

  • $25–50 for the test video (based on IG profile)
  • Ongoing paid work for creators whose content lands — we're actively building out our UGC library

What you'll create:

  • 1x short vertical video for IG Reels
  • Native, casual, organic style — no polished ads, just real people
  • You post it on your own Instagram
  • We handle the brief, hooks, angles, and examples

Good fit if you:

  • Are comfortable on camera
  • Are into books, productivity, self-improvement, or "I want to read more but never have time"
  • Can speak naturally to busy people who want to keep learning
  • Have a phone and decent lighting
  • Can deliver casual, relatable content without it feeling scripted

Apply:

  • Upvote + comment with your portfolio or IG handle
  • Or DM directly — happy to answer questions

Summaia is live on Product Hunt today.

The interesting build constraint: no catalog. Every summary is generated on demand — user picks a book, picks a length, picks a language, and it's built fresh in seconds. The pipeline has to work for any book, every time, which is a different kind of quality problem than hand-curating a fixed library.

Would appreciate any support or feedback from the community. Happy to go deep on the architecture or product decisions if useful.

Most book summary apps have a catalog. We don't.

I kept hitting the same wall building Summaia: the moment you commit to a catalog, you're in an editorial business. You're curating, licensing, maintaining. You're always one niche title away from "sorry, we don't have that one."

So we went the other direction — no catalog at all. You search any book, we generate the summary on demand. Choose the length (short, medium, long), choose the language, hit build. It's audio in seconds.

The interesting problem that unlocked was: now the product has to work for any book, every time. You can't hand-tune edge cases. The generation pipeline has to be good enough that someone asking for a 1987 management textbook gets the same quality as someone asking for Atomic Habits.

That constraint turned out to be the right one to build around. It forced a different kind of quality bar.

Still a lot to do, but the app is live on iOS and Android if anyone wants to poke at it.
