What is text to podcast?
Text to podcast turns written text into a spoken episode. You paste notes, an article or a chapter, ReadLoudly writes a conversation about it and two AI hosts record it, so you can listen instead of reading. A full podcast runs 5, 10 or 20 minutes; a short script runs 1, 3 or 5.
Write a podcast script first
Want to edit the words before anything is recorded? Script mode writes a 1, 3 or 5 minute script as an explainer, an interview or a debate between Maya, Leo and Priya. Change any line, then have each speaker read it in their own voice. Open the script writer
