Eightify names podcasts, interviews, science and technology, business, investing, news, health, and personal growth as possible subjects. It is available on Android, iOS, web, and as a browser extension. A free plan and free trial are available. Eightify Pro costs $9.99 a month, billed monthly, or $59.99 a year, billed annually.
