Thank you for taking the time to read this. Writing this post was a deeply personal reflection on why Glasp exists and what we hope to build with our incredible community.
At its core, Glasp is about making knowledge visible, shareable, and lasting—so that we don’t lose the valuable insights we gain throughout our lives. It’s a vision inspired by my own experiences, but ultimately, it’s something much bigger than me.
I’d love to hear your thoughts—what does knowledge sharing mean to you? How do you capture and retain what you learn? Let’s continue this conversation together!
I stumbled upon Glasp looking for an alternative to Reader/Readwise and have really been liking it. It’s simple in the best way. It would great if there was a way to highlight Substack too!
Thank you so much for reading our founding story and making warm comment!
I like this question, "I feel the larger impact will be from community/culture; can you create a system where sharing what you've learned feels less like performing for an audience and more like contributing to infrastructure you yourself will benefit from?"
To achieve what we believe, we will keep improving the products and spreading what we think is valuable and important, so it'd be great if we can take the journey together.
Let's learn together and leave it for future generations📚
