## What is PodSized?

The podcast was 90 minutes. Your summary is ready in 5 — as a structured read or a radio-style audio recap. Ask follow-up questions and get answers cited straight from the episode.

PodSized uses AI to transform full-length podcast episodes into structured summaries, interactive outlines, audio overviews, and full transcripts. Whether you have 5 minutes or 50, you'll always leave knowing what mattered.

— TRY BEFORE YOU SIGN UP —

Browse PodSized and read 3 real summaries instantly — no account required. We've already summarized 100+ top podcasts, so the value is there the moment you open the app.

— WHAT PODSIZED DOES —

AUDIO SUMMARIES
Don't have time to read? Hit play on the AI-generated audio overview — a 5-minute radio-style recap of the full episode, with natural voice narration.

AI SUMMARIES
Every episode condensed into a clear, structured summary with headers, key points, and direct quotes — designed for skimming, not speed-reading. Think Blinkist, but for podcasts.

ASK PODSIZED — AI CHAT
Ask anything across a podcast's entire catalog — or a single episode — and get instant, cited answers pulled straight from the transcripts. "What has this show said about interest rates?" Answered in seconds, with sources.

INTERACTIVE OUTLINES
Timestamped chapter outlines show you where every key topic lives in the episode. Tap any timestamp to jump directly to that moment.

EXPORT TO YOUR SECOND BRAIN
One tap sends any summary to Notion, Obsidian, Readwise, or NotebookLM — with the episode link and key quotes formatted for your notes.

FULL TRANSCRIPTS
Every episode includes a full, speaker-separated, timestamped transcript. Read along, search for a quote, or just skim.

— PRE-PROCESSED & INSTANT —

For the top 100+ most popular podcasts, PodSized has summaries ready before you even open the app. The moment a new episode drops from Huberman Lab, Lex Fridman, How I Built This, or Planet Money — it's already summarized.
