How podcast transcript generator works
- 01
Find the exact episode
Copy the episode—not just the show—URL from Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, the publisher site, or its RSS feed.
- 02
Resolve and transcribe
Content Tools finds the publicly available publisher audio and processes it into a timed, speaker-labelled draft.
- 03
Edit before publishing
Verify guest names, sponsors, numbers, and quotations, then export TXT or SRT or continue into a podcast content workflow.
Designed around the source

Frequently asked questions
Can I transcribe a Spotify podcast?
Paste the public Spotify episode page. Content Tools uses it as a discovery link and attempts to resolve the publisher's publicly available episode audio; it does not bypass Spotify access controls.
Does it work with Apple Podcasts and RSS feeds?
Yes. Exact Apple Podcasts episode links, publisher episode pages, direct RSS feeds, and supported public media URLs can be used when the episode audio is resolvable.
Can it tell the host and guest apart?
Speaker diarization labels likely speaker changes, but it may not know each person's identity automatically. Review and rename speaker labels before publication.
How long does a podcast transcript take?
Processing time varies with episode length, audio quality, provider availability, and current service load. Long episodes naturally take longer than short clips.
Can I download the podcast audio here?
This page is for transcription, not a general podcast downloader. It resolves public publisher audio for the transcript workflow and returns transcript exports rather than promising a separate audio download.
Can I publish a transcript of someone else's podcast?
Only when you have permission or a lawful basis. Transcription does not transfer copyright or publicity rights; verify quotations and credit the source appropriately.
