How do I turn a YouTube video into a podcast?

Transcribe the video with our transcription tool, then paste the transcript into Podcast Studio as a source. AI hosts discuss it in a new episode: you pick one to four hosts and their voices, edit the outline and script, and download the result as MP3 or WAV.

Can I get a transcript from a YouTube video?

Yes. Paste the link into our transcription tool to get an accurate transcript with speaker labels and downloadable SRT/VTT subtitles.

Do I just want to download the video?

If you only need the raw file, use our free YouTube downloader at tools.audiopod.ai — grab the MP4 or MP3, then come back to repurpose it.

Is it legal to repurpose YouTube videos?

Only use content you own or have the rights to, and respect copyright and YouTube's Terms of Service. AudioPod is built for creators repurposing their own work.
