Curation as a Service / Pinterest for Knowledge

A platform enabling users to follow experts ('taste makers') and see their curated content stacks (articles, podcasts, etc.), complete with notes and annotations. It aims to filter out mediocre content and monetize expert taste.

Why now

The internet is flooded with content, making expert curation a 'superpower.' The value of 'taste' is increasing as technology commoditizes many tasks.

Market gap

No dedicated, monetizable platform for expert content curation with annotations, addressing the information overload and valuing 'taste.'
