Hey @annewootton! Super fan here. We've been using Audiosear.ch to assist in our curation efforts at RadioPublic. Very excited about the news you're increasing the coverage for more podcasts. Can you speak to how frequently the index and metadata is updated when new episodes are published? Some neat opportunities for ~real time alerts about people or a topic being mentioned in an episode.

Hi @neocmatt :)
We're excited about increasing coverage too!
Currently, our index is updated every four hours. Same goes for transcription — we're transcribing around the clock, as you can imagine, so new episodes are transcribed within hours of when they are released.
YES to ~real time alerts! In fact, we already send daily digests to lots of people who want the equivalent of a Google audio alert for themselves or topics/people of interest to them: www.audiosear.ch/alerts. (I may or may not have an alert set for Justin Bieber.)
Fandom is mutual :)
