Pros:
- Transcribes any podcast, YouTube video or private audio file (MP3/M4A/WAV)
- Fast transcription (1-hour podcast in 2-4 minutes) allows you to glean learnings quickly
- Creates AI-generated summaries with key topics, timestamps, and the ability to ask questions about the transcription
- Translation to English when accessing a non-English podcast
- Creates a repository for previously transcribed podcasts that you can access later
Cons:
- The platform is relatively new and can be glitchy so it requires some patience!

- Podcasts from private sources (e.g. published on a private website) may not be available to transcribe
Sample Use Cases
- Transcribing podcasts to stay up to date: Summarize podcasts into brief, concise summaries. This can be helpful for busy professionals who want to quickly get the gist of a podcast without having to listen to the whole thing.
- Creating blog posts or articles based on your podcast content: PodsmartAI can create blog posts or articles based on your firm’s podcast, YouTube, or audio content. This will save your team hours of time producing marketing materials on your content!
- Upload audio files of meetings and important interviews: In case there was an important meeting or interview that was missed, instead of having people go watch recordings, this tool can be used to provide short summaries of what was missed and leverage the querying to offer quick answers to frequently asked questions.
Capria’s Take:
PodsmartAI is one of the few AI-enabled platforms that allows users to take long podcasts and audio files and enrich their learning experience while still being reasonably priced.
Capria uses PodsmartAI to do the same and also shares summaries internally so those who do not have time to listen to podcasts can still stay current and up to date with the latest information.
