Create studio-quality video podcasts from scripts, links, PDFs, or ideas — with AI hosts, natural voices, and your digital twin. Podcastor handles production and puts you on screen, turning hours of recording and editing into a finished video podcast in around 15 minutes. Create solo or two-host episodes and get a publish-ready video without cameras or a production team. Already have an audio episode? Upload it and transform it into a video podcast with your voice and AI avatar.

I can't believe (or maybe I can?) how much work it takes to produce a video podcast... (trust me, I'm trying!).
Honestly, I think @jackbogdan and I are ready to outsource our visages to AI and just focus on the banter and chitchat.
I'm ready to give @PodcastorAI a try for our next episode!
PodcastorAI
@jackbogdan @chrismessina This means a lot coming from you, Chris 🙏 And yes — 'keep the banter, outsource the visages' is exactly the point. Whenever you and Jack are ready, send a photo each and we'll build your twins so your next episode is basically just the two of you talking, minus the camera setup. Would love to see how it turns out.
PodcastorAI
@jackbogdan @chrismessina Thank you so much for hunting us, Chris! 🙌 Since you’re experiencing the video podcast workflow firsthand, your feedback will be especially valuable to us. We can’t wait to see what you and Jack create with PodcastorAI—please send any questions or honest feedback our way as you try it!
Damn, nice one. Congrats on the launch. “NotebookLM can write a podcast; Podcastor puts you on screen” is a very clear way to explain it. The digital twin side is interesting, but I’d want to know how much control you have over the final performance. Can you adjust pacing, tone, pauses and host reactions after generation, or do you mostly accept what comes back? That feels important for educators and experts in particular. A technically polished avatar is useful, but only if it still sounds like the person behind the content.
PodcastorAI
@os_ishmael Thanks, and that’s a great point. If you use Podcastor’s TTS, you can precisely adjust pacing and add pauses to shape the delivery. For uploaded NotebookLM audio, we can extract the script so you can revise the spoken content rather than simply accepting the original output.
Fine-grained control over host reactions isn’t available yet, although the current lip-sync is already very strong. We’re now developing digital twins based on real recorded video, along with a new model that drives emotions and body language from the tone and context of the content. This is especially important for educators and experts, where preserving the creator’s authentic delivery matters as much as visual polish.

An MCP integration would be really useful for sending a transcript from another tool directly into PodcastorAI.
PodcastorAI
@rhinogo You're reading our minds 👀 We've actually been building an MCP server for exactly this — pipe a transcript straight from your tool of choice into Podcastor, no copy-paste tango. Consider your idea officially on the roadmap (and mostly already there 😏)
PodcastorAI
@rhinogo Great suggestion! This is exactly the kind of seamless workflow we want to build—moving content from the tools you already use directly into PodcastorAI. Which tools would you most like us to support first?
@chrismessina - This looks awesome, great job. However, I'd getting tired of one more subscription service, do you have plans for a pay-as-you-go model? A model that allowed you to purchase credits instead, that never expires?. I feel offering this model would potentially increase the up take, as many users are hesitant to commit to another monthly/annual subscription. I
PodcastorAI
@codeandsea Thanks Brent — and it's a totally fair ask 🙏 Subscription fatigue is real, and 'buy credits that don't expire' is something we've been actively debating internally. No firm date yet, but you're not the only one asking, so it's very much on our radar. In the meantime it's free to try, really appreciate you taking the time to think it through with us.
@tineee9 - Thanks for getting back to me. This is great news I genuinely feel this will provide a more appealing solution for users. I've been thinking about creating a 'build in public' type podcast in the future to document my journey. I've bookmarked your tool, as if I do go ahead I will definitely consider using PodcasterAI. Best of luck with the launch and future development.
PodcastorAI
@codeandsea a 'build in public' podcast is exactly what we made Podcastor for — you document the journey, your digital twin handles the on-camera part so it never becomes the thing you keep putting off. Best of luck, Brent, and thanks for the thoughtful back-and-forth 🙏"
Congrats on the launch! 🎉 The "digital twin hosting" angle stands out — most tools stop at voice cloning, but putting an avatar on screen changes the whole feel. Quick question: when someone uploads an existing audio episode, how well does the avatar's lip-sync track the original pacing/tone?
PodcastorAI
@ryancheng Hi Ryan! Thank you so much! The digital host’s lip-sync closely matches the pacing and intonation of the original audio, so uploaded episodes feel natural on screen. We’re also developing our next-generation model to bring more emotion and expressive body language to digital twin hosts, which should make the final videos even more engaging.
PodcastorAI
@ryancheng Appreciate it, Ryan 🙌 The avatar is animated straight from your uploaded audio, so lip-sync and pacing track the original episode instead of being re-timed — pauses, emphasis and all. It's the kind of thing that's easier to feel than to describe, so I'd genuinely love for you to test it with one of your own episodes and tell us how close it lands.
Voquill
Nice concept. A real time saver! How well does the avatar stay in sync during longer episodes? Congrats on the launch!
PodcastorAI
@henry_habib Thank you! The host’s lip movements stay closely aligned with the pacing and intonation of the audio throughout longer episodes. We also use intelligent alternating shots to keep long-form videos visually engaging, and we’re developing a new model with context-aware emotions and body language to make the digital twin feel even more natural over extended conversations.
PodcastorAI
@henry_habib Appreciate it, Henry 🙌 Because the avatar tracks your actual audio, it stays in sync across the full length — and we support single videos up to 30 minutes, so longer episodes are covered. Thanks for the kind words 🙏
the 15 minute turnaround is impressive but I'm curious how it holds up past the 2-3 minute mark, most AI avatar stuff still has a slight uncanny valley thing with head movement and blinking during longer stretches of talking. have you had people watch a full episode without knowing it's a digital twin and not notice?
PodcastorAI
@omri_ben_shoham1 That’s a very real challenge, especially in long-form content. We’re not claiming the digital twin is completely indistinguishable yet, so we built an intelligent alternating-shots system to vary the framing and keep longer episodes from feeling visually repetitive. We’re also developing a new model that adds context-aware emotion and body language, making the host feel much more natural and expressive over longer stretches.
