Your AI twin hosts your video podcast

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.
Really cool, and crazy idea. Can't wait to test it out. When you generate a two-host episode from a document, do the hosts ever actually disagree, or just take turns agreeing? That friction and chemistry is (almost) always what makes it worth listening to.
PodcastorAI
@aidan_codefox Thanks! We completely agree that chemistry and friction are what make a two-host conversation worth listening to. That’s why we offer three formats: Deep Dive, where both hosts unpack a topic together; Debate, where they take opposing sides and challenge each other; and Storytelling, where one leads the story while the other asks questions and keeps it moving. So if you want real disagreement rather than two hosts simply taking turns agreeing, Debate is built specifically for that.

Curious, where did GPT-5.6 Sol make the biggest difference for PodcastorAI?
PodcastorAI
@erok_chen The biggest difference was not simply faster coding, but making our entire development loop more reliable. GPT-5.6 Sol with Codex became especially effective at understanding requirements and navigating complex, cross-module changes, so we could move from planning to implementation and verification with far less back-and-forth. We also use it in production monitoring: agents inspect failed tasks and logs, trace issues across the database and codebase, then prepare fixes for our team to review. That has helped us iterate faster while catching risks much earlier.
love this one! question: for long or pre-recorded episodes, does the AI host lip syncs with the audio? and what about the changes in style and tone within one same episode? thanks and congrats!
PodcastorAI
the digital twin part is the interesting bet - if you re-record one line weeks later does the AI voice/face stay consistent with the original episode, or is there drift between sessions?
PodcastorAI
@sylvialane makes sense that identity persistence was a deliberate design target rather than a side effect - that's the harder engineering problem than the initial generation.
PodcastorAI
Hey Product Hunt👋 I’m Parsons, founder of PodcastorAI.
Making a video podcast is stupidly slow. You already know what you want to say — but turning it into something watchable means a camera, lighting, a cohost's calendar, and hours in Descript. One hour of finished content usually eats ~5 hours of production.
Podcastor removes that bottleneck.
Bring your audio podcast (or a link, PDF, or your NotebookLM audio) and it becomes a directed episode hosted by your digital-twin avatar — structure, pacing, host handoffs, all done for you.
NotebookLM can write a podcast; Podcastor puts you on screen.

P.S. A note on the launch: we're part of Build with OpenAI 🎉 because we leaned hard on GPT-5.6 while building this. Genuinely couldn't have hit this timeline without it.

Can I keep my original audio exactly as recorded and use the AI host only for the video layer?
PodcastorAI
@mingyouagi Yes, absolutely! You can upload your existing recording, keep the original audio, and add an AI host as the video layer—there’s no need to record or regenerate everything again.
Can users preview a lower-resolution draft before spending credits on the final render?
PodcastorAI
@joviechen Not yet, Jovie — no preview before the final render at the moment 🙏 But it's a great suggestion, and one we'll take away and evaluate. Really appreciate you raising it 🙌
