Use cases

Built for the reading you meant to get to.

For researchers

Turn papers, PDFs, and long articles into reviewable audio for walks, commutes, and lab time.

For founders and operators

Catch up on market research, investor updates, and competitor content without staying pinned to a screen.

For students and lifelong learners

Convert dense reading into explainers, summaries, or teacher/student episodes that are easier to revisit.

Episode styles

Choose the format that matches the reading.

Some sources need a fast summary. Others need a careful explanation, a conversation, or a study-friendly walkthrough.

FAQ

Clear answers before checkout.

What counts as one credit?

One generated episode uses one credit. If you paste five URLs in summary mode, Poddy creates five episodes and uses five credits.

What happens if generation fails?

The episode is marked failed, the error is visible on the episode page, and the reserved credit is refunded automatically.

Can I download the audio?

Yes. Completed episodes can be played in the browser, downloaded as MP3 files, or collected in your private podcast feed.

Which sources work today?

Poddy supports public URLs, PDFs, DOCX files, and TXT files. More source types can be added later.

Are my episodes public?

No. Generated episodes are private to your account. Your personal RSS feed is designed for your own podcast app.

What documents work best?

Clean PDFs, DOCX files, TXT notes, and public web pages with readable article text work best. Scanned image-only PDFs may need OCR before upload.
