feat: add PodRead to service directory

[jesse-spevack]

Summary

PodRead offers its text-to-speech service as an API through the Machine Payments Protocol (MPP). You pay per conversion with either on-chain stablecoin on the Tempo network or a Stripe shared payment token from a Link wallet. Pricing scales with submission length and voice tier, with a minimum floor.

Live and accepting payments at https://podread.app — full docs at https://podread.app/docs/mpp.

Endpoints

• POST /api/v1/mpp/narrations — anonymous, creates a standalone narration with 24h retention
• GET /api/v1/mpp/narrations/:id — poll narration status and fetch the signed audio URL
• POST /api/v1/mpp/episodes — authenticated, attaches the episode to the caller's podcast feed (Bearer token + payment)

Try it

npx mppx https://podread.app/api/v1/mpp/narrations \
  -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"source_type":"url","url":"https://example.com/article"}'

link-cli mpp pay https://podread.app/api/v1/mpp/narrations \
  --spend-request-id lsrq_xxx --method POST

Thanks for submitting a service to the MPP directory!

If you want your service included in the curated mpp.dev/services list, complete this checklist before review:

Required

• Your service is live and accepting payments via MPP (not a placeholder or coming-soon)
• You've added your entry to schemas/services.ts following the contributing guide
• Types pass: pnpm check:types
• Build succeeds: pnpm build

Recommended

• Register your service on MPPScan (by Merit Systems) — it follows the standard MPP discovery format and makes your service discoverable by agents immediately, no PR required

Review criteria

We prioritize services that are high quality and novel. We may not approve services that duplicate existing functionality or aren't yet production-ready.
