AI Assistant for Podcasters
Spend more time recording, less time on everything else
Running a podcast is 20% recording and 80% everything else. An AI assistant handles show notes, social clips, guest research, and promotion so you can focus on making great audio.

These are the daily frustrations that drain your energy and steal your time.
Show notes take as long as the episode
A 45-minute episode produces 45 minutes of transcript to edit, summarize, time-stamp, and format. Then you need SEO keywords, chapter markers, description, and links. You're spending 3-4 hours on production for every 1 hour of content.
Guest research is hit or miss
Guest books Thursday for a Friday recording. You spend the morning Googling them, skimming their book, trying to find un-asked questions. You show up knowing you've missed half the relevant context. The guest can tell.
Repurposing content is a second full-time job
Every episode should become 6 tweets, a LinkedIn post, 3 Instagram quotes, a YouTube short, a newsletter blurb. You know this. You almost never do it. Your best content sits in a feed only superfans find.
Sponsorship management falls through the cracks
Managing deliverables for 3 sponsors: ad reads, talking points, quarterly reports, renewal conversations. When you're in production mode, sponsor admin gets pushed. You miss a renewal, get the wrong read rate, or forget to send the Q2 report.
With an AI assistant, you can...
Transform how you work. Here's what becomes possible.
Auto-generate show notes from transcript
Upload transcript or audio and get complete show notes: summary, key timestamps, guest bio, resources mentioned, SEO-optimized description. Minutes, not hours.
Example:
'Here are show notes for Episode 87: 3-sentence summary, 8 chapter markers, 4 books mentioned, links to research, 150-word Apple Podcasts description targeting 'AI business strategy'.'
Deep guest research brief before every recording
Give AI your guest's name 10 minutes before your call. Get background, their best previous interview moments, topics they haven't covered much, and 15 high-quality questions.
Example:
'Research Tom Kuegler for tomorrow's episode: background, controversial takes, fresh angles vs. exhausted topics, 12 questions he probably hasn't been asked.'
One episode becomes 10 pieces of content
After every episode, AI extracts best quotes, creates social posts for Twitter/LinkedIn/Instagram, writes newsletter section, suggests YouTube Shorts clip.
Example:
From a 50-minute episode: 8 tweets with timestamps, LinkedIn post, 5 Substack paragraphs, 3 pull quotes for graphics, 90-second YouTube Short script.
Sponsor deliverable tracking
AI tracks sponsor agreements, reminds you of read requirements before recording, alerts you when reports are due. No more apologizing to sponsors for missed deliverables.
Example:
'Recording reminder: 2 ad reads for Episode 89 — Morning Brew (60-second, mention newsletter), Riverside (30-second, include discount code PODCAST20). Key talking points attached.'

A day in the life
How an AI assistant transforms your podcast workflow:
Episode drops today. AI has already drafted all social posts, scheduled them via Buffer, and sent newsletter section to your Substack drafts. You review and approve.
Recording in 2 hours. AI sends guest research brief: 12 fresh questions, key background, 3 topics never discussed publicly, reminder about sponsor reads.
Record the episode. This is the part you can't automate. It's also the most important part.
Upload raw audio. AI processes overnight. Show notes, social content, and next week's episode plan in your inbox by morning.
“I was spending 6 hours after every episode on production work. Now it's under an hour. The guest research briefs alone have made my interviews noticeably better — guests comment on how prepared I am.”
