Snipcast

Hey there! My name is Mikkel and I am a Computer Science student at UC Berkeley. Around a year ago, I started building Snipcast with one goal in mind: how can I remember more of what I learn from podcasts? I was curious whether the recent developments in generative AI could make instant podcast summarization a reality. I spent the following weeks creating an MVP, and I was honestly blown away by how well it worked. In a matter of minutes, Snipcast could generate short, to-the-point summaries that captured the core ideas of any podcast. Since then, Snipcast has seen a ton of improvements. Some key features: • Supports all major podcast platforms (Spotify, Apple Podcasts, etc.) and YouTube. Just paste the link to any episode, and keep an eye on your inbox while Snipcast goes to work. • Upload your own audio or video files for summarization. Perfect for lectures, interviews, or meetings! • Very fast – a typical 1-hour podcast is summarized in about 3 minutes. • Access full transcripts of the podcast in addition to the summary. • Time-stamped summaries makes it easy to jump to relevant parts of the podcast. • Get a permanent link to your summary: great for sharing podcasts with friends or family. If this sounds interesting, Snipcast is free to try, with no registration required. I'm looking forward to hearing your feedback!

I used Snipcast a lot and love how fast it is.

Great idea and beautifully executed!
