Automatically transcribe new podcast episodes
Open podcast Sources →Preview before following a show
Sign in and add a public feed to Sources. Check the supported episode listing and import options. Private or protected podcasts cannot be retrieved by this workflow.
Auto-follow is a Premium feature
Automatic follow of new episodes requires an active paid plan. A signed-in Free account can explore supported source previews and eligible manual imports within its limits, but cannot activate automatic follow.
Decide what happens after transcription
Supported Sources can use import policies and optional summary, chapters or email notification preferences. AI drafts still require review.
Your automation has limits
New items are checked periodically, not instantaneously. Episode availability, monthly minutes, recording counts and source/import limits all apply.
Set up a recurring podcast Source
- Open Sources and sign in to select a supported public RSS feed or show.
- Preview available episodes. Choose a manual import policy.
- With Premium, enable Follow for eligible future episodes.
- Review each finished recording and optional AI chapter/summary drafts.
Compare plans before enabling paid auto-follow. Recurring imports are subject to account limits.
