PodText
Podcast transcripts you can search, summarize, and export
PodText starts with a podcast link—not a downloaded file. Paste an Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart, YouTube, Xiaoyuzhou, or RSS URL, or upload audio/video, and get an accurate, timestamped transcript. AI turns it into summaries, chapters, highlights, and key quotes, while full-text search helps you find any moment fast. Export everything in SRT, VTT, TXT, or Markdown. It’s a faster path from a long episode to searchable knowledge and ready-to-publish content.
I built PodText because valuable ideas often get buried inside hour-long podcasts. Finding one quote usually means scrubbing through the timeline—and using most transcription tools means downloading the episode before you can even begin.
PodText takes a link-first approach. Paste an Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart, YouTube, Xiaoyuzhou, or RSS link, and it turns the episode into a timestamped, searchable transcript. You also get AI-generated summaries, chapters, highlights, and key quotes, plus exports in SRT, VTT, TXT, and Markdown. Audio and video uploads are supported too.
The goal is simple: help creators, researchers, and curious listeners turn long-form conversations into knowledge they can search, cite, and reuse.
You can try it with 60 free transcription minutes—no credit card required.
I’d especially love your feedback on: • Which podcast platform should we support next? • Which output do you use most: transcripts, summaries, show notes, or subtitles? • What would make PodText part of your regular workflow?
