Your personal listen-later podcast
Overview
Podstow
Your personal listen-later podcast.
Podstow turns the things you mean to read into a private podcast you can actually listen to. Connect it to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP-aware assistant and it can send web articles — or text the assistant writes itself (summaries, deep-research reports, digests) — straight into your personal podcast feed. Podstow scrapes the page (or ingests the text), runs it through natural text-to-speech, and publishes an episode to a private RSS feed you subscribe to in Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Pocket Casts, or any podcast app.
Tools
- submit_url — send a URL; Podstow scrapes it and publishes a narrated episode.
- submit_text — send AI-written text (a summary, report, or digest); it's published as an episode, titled
[AI] …. - list_episodes — browse your most recent episodes.
- get_episode_transcript — pull the transcript for an episode.
- get_account — tier, article usage, voice preferences, and feed URL.
- show_subscribe_instructions — your feed URL plus per-app subscribe links and a QR code.
How it works
- Your assistant calls
submit_urlorsubmit_text. - Podstow scrapes or ingests the content, synthesises audio, and adds an episode.
- It lands in your private RSS feed — listen anywhere, in the podcast app you already use.
