Can I paste a Spotify or Apple Podcasts link instead?

Yes. On the home page, paste a Spotify episode link, an Apple Podcasts link, or an RSS feed URL. Search by show or episode name also works.

What do I download?

Plain text (.txt) and SubRip subtitles (.srt) with timestamps.

Which languages are supported?

Podskrift uses OpenAI Whisper and supports 28 languages in the language picker, including English, Norwegian, German, Spanish, and many more. You can name the language or leave auto-detect on.
