## What Podtyper does

Podtyper transcribes podcast episodes from public URLs. Users paste a YouTube, Spotify, or Apple Podcasts link — Podtyper downloads the audio, processes it through state-of-the-art speech-to-text models (99%+ word-level accuracy on clean audio), and returns a formatted transcript with timestamps. An AI layer then generates an episode summary, 5–8 key takeaways, and notable quotes. The full transcript can be exported as TXT, SRT, or VTT. Audio files are deleted from servers immediately after processing.

## How to get a podcast episode summary

Podtyper transcribes the audio, then automatically generates a concise summary, key takeaways, and notable quotes — no manual work required. The summary is ready in 1 minute for a one-hour episode. This works for any publicly accessible podcast episode on YouTube, Spotify, or Apple Podcasts. Sign up free and get your first 30 minutes of transcription with no credit card required.
