This is pretty exciting — and something that will likely come to the big players eventually. Smart for Snipd to get ahead of this.
Check out this recent article that goes into some of the challenges of shortform social audio — this approach might address some of them!

This is such a great feature for podcasts that cover a range of topics in one episode (Ferriss, Rogan, etc) . I love that Snipd adds much needed features like this on a weekly basis. Looking forward to what's next.
Absolutely love Snipd. Cannot go back to the way I used to listen to podcasts before this app. Given it a shot for a few days and you will see everyone else loves.
I have been waiting for podcast summaries for a while. There are simply too many podcasts out there and it takes far too much effort to sample them. I am looking forward to this feature boosting my ability to explore further into the podcast universe.
@andrew_berman hey we do use gpt3. It's built on top of our processing pipeline so we could break down the transcript already
Love Snipd for their highlight feature (snips) and their “For You” page which helps me with podcast discovery. This one looks like another banger of a feature for podcast listeners.
Huberman episodes next pls :)
@gio_tiongson Thx for your kind words :) Will add your vote to Huberman. ...We sort of expected Huberman to be one of the requested ones ;)
This is amazing. This will help me get through my podcast backlog so much faster.
When will this become available for other podcasts?
@parthpareek We're working on it right now. The biggest question for us is which shows to tackle first. Which ones would you like to see this feature for?
@kevinbensmith Here are a few I'd love to see:
All-In Podcast --> this can almost become a short news snippet like Morning Brew
Lenny's Podcast
Knowledge Project
This is great! I've always struggled with podcasts due normally to length, gonna try this out!
Love this. Quick que: Is there a way podcast hosts can use this to summarize our episodes?
I wanted to give it a try with my podcast - The Undefeated Underdogs!
@5harath great question. Currently, we only have AI summaries for the Lex Fridman Podcast, but we plan on rolling the feature out to more shows. You can request shows directly with the form that we have here: https://www.snipd.com/ai-podcast....
I just found your show on Snipd which means your listeners can already listen with our other AI features:
-listen & follow along to the transcript, word for word
-get chapters (timestamps that you can also use for your show notes)
-create highlights, with AI summaries and transcripts and sync to notetaking apps
-share highlight as a link or as a video with transcripts
- and more...
Super keen to hear your thoughts as a host!
I have been using this product for maybe two months now and have been LOVING it. I am an ex-breaker and Airr power user and Snipd has been everything I with they’d been. Podcasting has hardly been enriched by features in the last ten years and Snipd is finally changing that. Seems like an excellent team that executes on product development.
Thanks so much for the wonderful review, @chasestubblefield! Means a great deal to the team and keeps us motivated to keep shipping features to further unlock knowledge in podcasts 🚀🚀🚀
Congrats on the launch! 🎉
I’ve been using Snipd for about 6 months now and am a big fan! It replaced Airr and essentially every other podcast app I was using at the time (e.g. Overcast).
Things I Love:
- Transcriptions
- Chapter summaries
- Queues
- Personal notes on “snips” that I clip
- Export functionality to Obsidian
Wishlist:
- iOS widgets
- Desktop app (or web app)
Hi @skyler_reeves, that's great to hear. Thx for your support :) Give the new feature a try as well. Interested to hear your feedback.
Looks like AI podcasts will eventually replace actual ones. Congrats on the launch!
@tiagorbf @maxwellcdavis Thanks for your support! Would love to get your feedback on it once you've had the chance to give it a try :)
Snipd has fully replaced my previous podcast player, it’s wonderful. It has all the feature I need including some I didn’t know I needed (A TikTok style for you page for instance) The integration into Readwise is awesome. The team is responsive - I submitted a bug and it was fixed the next week. I’m so excited to see where the product goes.
@david_hague1 Thankssss David! We are happy that you like our app! Stay tuned there are many more nice things to come!
Thanks a lot @david_hague1! Means so much to the team 💚 It's great to hear that we've been able to add features to your podcast listening experience that you never knew you needed!
While I recommend people listen to Lex's podcast with Balaji, this app could be useful for those that don't have 8 hours (or 4 hours at 2x). 😅
@rrhoover completely agree! One great aspect of the summary feature is that you can at any time jump into the full episode if you find that part of the summary interesting.
That way, it also helps you find the parts of the episode you find most interesting, even if they only appear after 6h in :D
