About this app

Unlimited Smart Topics, Smart Summaries, and Smart Skip, now $2.99 per month, when you subscribe to our Unlimited Annual plan.

The independent podcast app built for listeners, not advertising companies. Listen to more of the shows you love — your data stays on your device, and you control how you listen.

SMART SKIP
Skip past the bits other listeners skip. Smart Skip spots commonly skipped topics using aggregated listener data, so you spend more time on what matters and less on the filler. The more the community listens, the smarter it gets.

SMART SUMMARIES
Every podcast and episode gets an AI-generated summary that evolves over time. Discover new shows you'd never have found. Quickly decide if an episode is worth a listen — before you press play. Summaries update as podcasts grow, so you always have the latest picture.

SMART TOPICS
Key topics are automatically highlighted across your favourite podcasts. Jump straight to the sections you care about most. No more scrubbing through episodes looking for the good parts — Smart Topics surfaces them for you. Share a topic timestamp with a friend in a single tap.

ALSO INCLUDED
Skip Silence trims silences and dead air from every episode without changing how natural the host sounds. Pair it with adjustable playback speed (0.5x–3x) and pitch correction to fit even more into your day.
