AI episode prep for podcasters who do their homework

How it works

Three simple steps from scattered links to structured episode prep.

1. Collect Links

   Save articles, tweets, and news throughout the week using the Chrome extension or the web app. Content is captured instantly, even behind paywalls you're logged into.

2. Create Prep

   Hit one button and AI analyzes all your links, groups related stories into topics, and generates discussion points from your show's unique perspective. See the worked episode prep example for a practical rundown.

3. Record with Confidence

Podcast Prep questions, answered

What is Podcast Prep?

Podcast Prep is an AI episode-prep tool for podcasters. Save articles, tweets, emails and pasted text to a research queue, and Podcast Prep turns them into structured episode prep notes, with topics, key quotes and talking points, tailored to your show's profile and editorial angle.

How much does Podcast Prep cost?

The Monthly plan is $9.95 per month. The Annual plan is $79.95 per year, which works out to $6.66 per month and saves $39.45 a year. You can cancel anytime, and payments are processed securely by Stripe.

How do I add research to my queue?

Save any article or tweet with one click using the Podcast Prep Chrome extension, or add links, emails and pasted notes in the web app.

Which browsers does the extension work in?

Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers, including Brave, Edge, Arc, Vivaldi and Opera. Firefox and Safari aren't supported yet.

Is my research used to train AI models?

No. When you click Create Prep, the content of your queued links is sent to an AI language model to generate your prep notes. It isn't used to train AI models and isn't retained by the AI provider after processing.

Should I check the AI-generated notes before recording?

Yes. Treat generated notes as a draft. Open your original sources and confirm names, dates, quotations and context before you record.
