Your reading. Your podcast.
Turn a link or your text into audio. Choose the style and target length; listen when it suits you.
Podhoc is an alternative for turning sources into podcast audio. English and Spanish on Free; 73 languages on Creator or Pro. 9 built-in styles; 5 on Free, all 9 on Creator or Pro.
Free podcasts are public. Creator and Pro can choose private. How publishing works.
From any source to your ears
Combine a YouTube video, a Wikipedia article, your research PDF and distill it into a study podcast you can take anywhere.
Add a supported link
Start with a supported URL, such as a YouTube video or web article, or paste text instead. File uploads require Creator or Pro.
Customize Your podcast
Choose a built-in style, available voices, output language and target duration. Creator and Pro add custom focus instructions; source weighting is a Pro feature. These instructions refine a style rather than create another built-in format.
Listen Anywhere
Download or stream your podcast. Learn on your commute, workout, or walk.
Distilled for key concepts
Every podcast starts from the core concepts of your source — extracted, restructured, and designed for retention.
73 languages
English and Spanish on Free; 73 output languages on Creator and Pro, including preview languages. Voice availability and pronunciation vary by language.
Custom Duration
From 5-minute summaries to hour-long deep dives. Perfect for matching your commute, workout, or study session.
Multiple Formats
Choose a built-in style, available voices, output language and target duration. Creator and Pro add custom focus instructions; source weighting is a Pro feature. These instructions refine a style rather than create another built-in format.
