2024 First Big Update

24,374 total transcripts.

7,012 transcriptions added in the last month.

120 podcasts in library, updated daily. Updated transcript count below.

I’m committed this year to give you an interactive way of consuming podcast.

Replaced my old laptop that was transcribing 45 minutes per episode. Now, I can transcribe an hour-long episode under 5 minutes.

How it begin

#

I started ReadablePod because I wanted to read podcasts.

After posting this idea online, I found a community who is just like me.

People who read faster than reading.

Those who have too many podcasts to go through.

Those who retain knowledge better through reading.

And the deaf community who needs transcripts.

If you’re one of them, thank you for giving me to courage to this project going.

The roadmap

#

The most requested feature is the ability to search text across all podcast episodes. This is almost ready.

AI feature will come next. You will be able to ask questions on the transcript you’re reading. Summary, explanation, etc.

Users have asked about my plans to monetize ReadablePod.

One thing for certain, I will never paywall any transcripts. This transcript library is open to all forever. Podcast that charge users just to access transcripts disgusts me the most.

To cover my cost of server and database, I will offer subscription. Think of it like a membership that gives you tools to help you go through more podcasts. Visit here to see what you’ll get as a member
