About this app

Listen to any podcast, read transcripts, bookmark insights, search for keywords, share quotes. Skim uninteresting parts, long intros and ads. Search for specific topics. Seamlessly switch between listening and reading.

The audio and the transcript are always on the screen together, complementing each other. Jumping around feels like magic with transcripts.

Here’s what our users have to say.

"Metacast is the only app that allows me to visually bookmark what I just heard on a podcast."
- Ilya K., AI Engineer in Florida

“I've used many Podcast apps over the years, but the team at Metacast created something special and useful here. Being able to quickly generate transcripts for any podcast episode within minutes makes following the show's conversation while on my daily train commute easier and more memorable. Reading the transcript helps me to retain the show's topics even better than only listening to the episodes, plus the ability to Search the transcript and Bookmark areas to quickly find the discussion topics later is pretty handy!”
- Kevin, Admin of Legion Podcasts

“Metacast is my new BFF in the podcast world. You know those moments when you hear something amazing in a podcast but can't remember which one or when? Or when you want to impress a friend or tell your wife about a cool fact you heard but have no clue where it came from? Metacast has your back! Its transcription feature is like having a personal assistant who never misses a word. Now I can find that elusive quote or subject without scrolling endlessly. Plus, the app is super user-friendly and the transcription is spot on. Highly recommended for anyone who, like me, has the memory of a goldfish when it comes to podcasts!”
- Moe N. a Software Engineer based in BC, Canada

“I really like how Metacast allows me to read and listen to content simultaneously. I've always felt that bookmarking is missing when listening to content versus reading it. Metacast has solved both of these issues for me.”
- Nakul R., Software Engineer

“I love Metacast for the simplicity and the intuitiveness of the app. The app has the right amount of content/detail and there's no information overload when looking at my phone screen. All the controls on the app are self-explanatory, and I love the transcript feature on the Metacast app. There are times where I don't want to listen to the audio, but re-read through the transcript to help me remember certain details from a podcast episode. The bookmarks feature is one of a kind in my opinion - I've personally used the bookmarks feature to store a bunch of quotes and excerpts that re-iterate and remind me of certain things that I follow and have strong feelings about.”
- Ashwin, Senior Software Engineer for a fintech company based out of CA

"Metacast is my go to app for listening to podcasts. I love the transcribe and bookmark feature. I bookmark parts of the podcast that I want to research more on later and share with my friends who follow similar podcasts. The UX is slick and intuitive."
- Bharath M., Engineering Manager in Seattle
