DISCOVERCreate a philosophy app
Philosophy app for your public lecture program: every lecture series in audio, by subscription
Each recorded lecture becomes an episode, each series a section. Listeners play them on the train, pick Spinoza up where they left off, and subscribe to follow every series.
Public lecture program, society or philosophy café: your own app for iPhone and Android, put together without programming, with lectures in audio sorted by series, in-person sessions in the agenda, companion texts, and access to the series by subscription.
Free 30-day trial - No credit card required
One series, one listening section
“Reading Spinoza in six sessions”, episode by episode
Record each lecture and publish it as an audio episode in its series' section: Spinoza, the philosophy of technology, the Stoics. Leave the first session free to listen and reserve the rest for subscribers; when a new series starts, the automatic push tells your listeners as soon as the first episode is online.
Listen anywhere, even offline
In the background, with the screen locked, without a connection
In the iOS and Android apps, playback continues when listeners lock their phone or switch to another app. They save a session to listen without a network, on the subway or on a hike, and bookmark the one they want to replay before the next.
Lectures in the hall
The session agenda, and a live stream for those far away
List the public sessions in the Agenda: venue, time, speaker, topic. Listeners add them to their phone calendar. For those who live far away, broadcast the lecture as live audio: a live stream stays open to everyone, subscribers or not, then the recording joins the series' reserved section.
The public lecture program
Thirty lectures a year, lost until now once the hall emptied; recorded, they become the catalog subscribers listen to all year round.
The philosophy café
The month's theme, the recorded session, the suggested reading: a small association keeps the thread going between meetings.
The philosophy teacher
Preparing students for exams rather than giving public lectures? Another app is designed for the classroom.
Philosophy teacher appThe texts that go with listening
Session outline, annotated excerpts, reading list
Next to each episode, publish an article: the lecture outline, the passages read aloud, books to go further, a PDF to download. Reserved like the session, it closes to non-subscribers, PDF included; it is also the text the Chatbot can consult to answer.
AI, to take the thinking further
What it brings, and at what price.
To discuss
“What does Spinoza mean by conatus?”
The Chatbot answers from your companion articles, citing the ones it read; it does not listen to the audio, which is why writing each session's outline pays off.
$35/month
To review
An end-of-series quiz
Ask the AI Extension Builder for a section of questions on the series' concepts; it generates it in the back office, and you adjust the wording.
Free
To publish
Summaries drafted by the assistant
Give your notes to Claude or ChatGPT, connected to the app's MCP server: it draws the session article from them and waits for your approval to put it online.
Included

GoodBarber keeps no share of subscription revenue; the stores deduct their fee, typically 15%.
Philosophy app: organizers' questions
Can we sell a single series?
No: the subscription opens everything that is reserved, with a single access level. You choose the duration (monthly, yearly or both) and can offer a free trial period.
Can we give access to speakers and volunteers?
Yes: in the back office, you give each of them a free subscription, for as long as you choose; other listeners subscribe in the app.
Can a live lecture be reserved for subscribers?
No, a live broadcast is open to all listeners, subscribed or not. What you reserve is the recording, published afterwards in the series' section.
How many sessions do we need to start?
The subscription requires at least ten reserved items: two series of five sessions will do, once the web app is live on your domain name.
Can entry to in-person lectures be paid in the app?
No: in-app purchase sells access to the app's content, not a seat in a hall. Ticketing for your evenings stays yours.
Which plan for a lecture program?
Premium and Memberships, or Pro, which contains it. The Standard plan produces a web app with no subscription.
