I built an offline audio player for the stuff that doesn't belong in streaming apps: lectures, audiobooks, voice memos

I have a pile of audio that isn't music and isn't a podcast feed: recorded lectures, long talks, audiobook files, voice memos. Apple Music doesn't want them, podcast apps can't see them, and the Files app is a miserable way to actually listen to anything. So I built Casette. What it does: - Import from anywhere: Files app (iCloud/Drive/Dropbox/USB), Wi-Fi transfer from your computer, link a cloud folder, or paste a direct audio URL - Plays basically everything: MP3, M4A, AAC, WAV, FLAC, OGG, OPUS, M4B audiobooks, AIFF, CAF - Silence skipper — auto-skips dead air in lectures.

AI 分析

痛点：讲座、有声书、语音备忘录等非音乐/播客音频散落在文件系统中，主流流媒体和播客应用无法管理或便捷播放。

目标用户：有大量本地长音频文件的学生、研究者、有声书听众、记者和知识工作者，尤其是重视隐私、无账号、离线播放的用户。

证据：Apple Music doesn't want them, podcast apps can't see them, and the Files app is a miserable way to actually listen to anything. ... Pro is a one-time unlock (no subscription) for cloud folders, speed, sleep timer, resume and the silence skipper.

变现：一次性解锁 Pro（无订阅），免费提供基础播放，Pro 解锁云文件夹、倍速、睡眠定时、断点续播和静音跳过；也可按版本或功能包买断。

摘要：独立开发者在 r/SideProject 发布 Casette，一款离线音频播放器，解决讲座、有声书、语音备忘录等非音乐/播客音频在 Apple Music、播客应用和 Files 中难以管理和播放的问题。采用免费+一次性 Pro 解锁（无订阅），核心差异化是讲座静音跳过、多格式支持和隐私无账号。没有收入或用户付费证据，但痛点具体且已有可运行产品。
