CFA Study Material

Hey everyone,

I’m a CFA candidate and kept running into the same problem most of us probably face - tons of dense readings, not a lot of time to sit down and get through them, especially while working full-time.

So I built something that I thought I’d share here in case it helps others.

It’s called CFA Digest — it turns CFA topics into short podcasts that explain concepts in plain language. Think of it as: “reviewing the readings while commuting, at the gym, or walking to work.” It’s not a replacement for curriculum, just an easier way to reinforce topics you’ve already studied.

A few quick points on how it works:

  • episodes are organized by topic/readings
  • covers L1 content now and expanding further
  • AI-generated but reviewed and cleaned for clarity
  • you can listen on your phone like any normal podcast

Free episodes are available if you just want to test it out.

Happy to answer questions about how I built it, feedback, criticism, feature ideas, or anything that would make it more useful for candidates. If it’s not useful for you - totally fair as well.

Good luck with studying everyone.
