2 to 4 hour episodes · RSS link · chapters for show notes

Transcribe long podcast episodes from Israeli shows, straight from the feed.

A two to four hour podcast episode from Israel transcribes in about 4 to 8 minutes, and you can start from the show's RSS feed rather than a file. The first 20 minutes are free, a single four-hour episode fits the $6 pack of 500 minutes, and the chapters and brief that come back are most of your show notes.

For hosts and producers

A long episode is a lot of good material with no index.

From the feed

Paste the RSS address and pick the episode, and the audio is fetched from where you already host it. A raw multitrack export or a final MP3 from your editor uploads as a file instead.

Show notes from chapters

Chapters come with timestamps that can go straight into the episode description, and the brief states the episode's main argument and the takeaways. The names, books and figures mentioned are listed, ready for the links section.

Hebrew, English, or both

Hebrew episodes and English episodes are each detected automatically. An interview that moves between the two is transcribed on the episode's main language, so a guest's answers in the other language are worth a listen against the text.

A season, priced

Twenty episodes of three hours each is 3,600 minutes. That sits on the $24 pack of 5,000 minutes, about $0.29 per hour, with room for the bonus episodes.

Why long episodes rarely get transcripts

The longer the episode, the less likely anyone writes it up.

✗ Audio only

Long conversations are what listeners come for, and they are the hardest to make searchable.

  • Show notes written from memory after editing
  • Chapters marked by scrubbing through the audio
  • Hosting-platform transcripts that stop early
  • Uploads refused for files over 25 MB on the Whisper API
  • Guests quoted without a time to check
  • No text for listeners who would rather read

✓ Audio and text

The episode as a document, with the work of show notes already started.

  • Feed link pasted, nothing downloaded
  • About 2 minutes per hour of episode
  • Timestamped chapters for the description
  • Hosts and guests named in the summary
  • Chat to find where a topic came up
  • SRT and VTT for the video version

Sample

A three-hour conversation, two hours in.

02:04:18 We have been going for two hours and we have not even reached the part I wanted to ask you about, which is the year you left.
02:04:40 That was the year everything happened at once. The company was sold in the spring and by autumn I was teaching.
02:11:05 And did you miss it, the first few months?
02:11:20 Honestly, no. I missed the people, but not the hours.

FAQ

Long podcast episodes from Israel, the questions hosts ask.

How long does a four-hour episode take?

About 8 minutes, since the rate is near 2 minutes per audio hour. A two-hour episode takes around 4.

What does an episode, or a season, cost?

A four-hour episode is 240 minutes on the $6 pack of 500 minutes, which leaves room for a second episode of the same length. A season of 20 three-hour episodes is 3,600 minutes on the $24 pack of 5,000 minutes. The packs are priced in US dollars and the minutes carry no expiry.

Do I have to upload the file?

No. Paste the podcast's RSS feed, a YouTube or Vimeo link, or a Google Drive share link. If you prefer to upload, files up to 2 GB go up before the first pack, and one file can be up to 10 hours or 5 GB after it.

Which languages work for Israeli podcasts?

Either Hebrew or English is picked up automatically, as part of 99 languages, with no picker. An episode that switches language is transcribed on its main one.

Can I use the transcript for show notes and captions?

Yes. The chapters and brief are a start on show notes, DOCX and TXT give you the full text, and SRT and VTT caption the video edit. JSON is there for your own site or tools.

Is the unreleased audio kept private?

Episodes are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training, which matters for an episode that has not aired yet. Delete the audio and transcript whenever you want.
