Turn YouTube videos and audio into clear, shareable show notes
Generate a concise summary and a full transcript from a YouTube link, Reels link or uploaded audio in minutes.
Create a ready-to-publish audio MP3 from your source, useful as a standalone podcast episode or audiogram companion.
Use the Shownotes app inside ChatGPT to transcribe MP3 links or search and transcribe Apple Podcasts content with prompts.
Supports YouTube, Instagram Reels, other video links and direct audio uploads, so one tool covers most of your published content.
Fast AI transcription with speaker labels and built-in content analysis
Different voices in a recording are detected automatically and tagged, so interviews, panels, and meetings stay readable instead of becoming one undifferentiated block of text.
From any transcript you can generate summaries, key themes, mind maps, action items, quizzes, blog posts, newsletters, and social posts, with reusable custom prompts and a chatbot for follow-up questions.
Bring in files from Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, Box, Zoom, YouTube, Vimeo, or a URL, then export as TXT, DOCX, PDF, SRT, or VTT with formatting you control.
Find and replace, speaker assignment, rich text formatting, and highlighting make cleanup fast before you hand a transcript off or publish it.
