Frequently Asked Questions
What is Podfeed?
Podfeed is a web application that uses AI technologies to transform various types of content, such as PDFs, website text, and raw text, into a format that is most convenient for you to consume. Currently, we're only generating podcast-style audio (monlogue and dialogue modes)
How does Podfeed work?
Podfeed uses large language models (LLMs) to analyze your input content and generate a script that optimizes for information retention, and then converts that script into audio using high-quality text-to-speech technology. You can customize various aspects of the output, such as the speaking style, level of detail, and length.
Is this similar to NotebookLM?
At the moment, yes. However, we started this company before NotebookLM was launched and we believe we have a more complete vision about where we're going. We also have a singular focus on content transformation.
What types of content can I use with Podfeed?
Podfeed currently supports PDF documents, website URLs, and raw text input. This allows you to convert a wide range of content, including articles, research papers, blog posts, and more. However, we're actively working on expanding our content sources to include more types of input.
Can Podfeed understand images in PDFs or websites?
Podfeed currently only processes text-based content. However, we're working on multimodal understanding capabilities.
Is my content safe and private?
Yes, we take your privacy seriously. We do not store your original input content on our servers. The generated audio files are kept private and accessible only to you through your personal account. We do not share your content with any third parties.
What are the subscription plans?
We offer two subscription plans: Basic and Pro. The Basic plan allows up to 32k tokens of content and 3 hours of audio generation per month, while the Pro plan offers up to 128k tokens of content and 10 hours of audio generation. The Pro plan also includes enhanced support and access to new premium features as they become available.
Is there a free trial?
As a very small, self-funded team, we're unfortunately unable to offer a free trial at this time. However, you can cancel your subscription at any time and the cancelation will take effect immediately so you do not need to pay for the full billing period.
Can I cancel my subscription at any time?
Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time. Your cancelation takes effect immediately and you receive a prorated amount in your next invoice. This means you do not pay for the full billing period but rather only the fraction of the month you have been a subscriber.
How do I listen to my generated podcasts?
Podfeed generates a private RSS feed for each user. You can add this feed URL to your favorite podcast player to listen to your generated audio content just like any other podcast. Your generated audio history is also available in the app and you can listen to it directly if you prefer.
