How do I turn a podcast episode into a newsletter?

To turn a podcast into a newsletter, paste an episode or RSS link into Pepys or upload the file, and AI drafts an email – a subject line, a warm intro, and scannable highlights with links to the moments – in minutes, grounded in a full transcript, in 99+ languages. Edit and send. Your first 60 minutes are free, no card required.

How podcast to newsletter works

01

Paste a link or upload

Paste a public episode or RSS link, or drop in the recording – any length works.

02

Draft the newsletter

AI transcribes the episode and writes a subject line, an intro, and a set of scannable highlights.

03

Edit and send

Polish the copy, ask chat for a sharper subject line, then export to TXT, Markdown, DOCX, or PDF and paste into your sender.

Your subscribers want the episode without the 45 minutes. Pepys writes the email for you: paste a link or upload the file and AI drafts a newsletter – a subject line that earns the open, a short intro that sets the scene, and a few scannable highlights readers can act on – so every episode reaches your list instead of sitting in the feed.

Each highlight is drawn from a full, timestamped transcript, so the quotes are accurate and you can drop in clickable jump-to links to the exact moments. Ask built-in chat for a different subject line or a tighter intro, work across 99+ languages, and know we never train on your audio. Pay only for what you process; credits never expire.

Clean paragraphs. No more um's and ah's.

The left is what Pepys hands back – logical paragraphs with the filler stripped out, punctuated and readable. The right is the raw, one-line-per-segment dump most transcribers leave you with.

um so yeah everyone keeps telling you to like lead with your best line right but uh honestly if you give away the whole answer in the first second you know there's basically no reason for anyone to keep watching so the hook isn't kind of the smartest thing you say it's like a loop you open that they need to close and um that's the part that actually keeps people around

Podcast to newsletter – questions, answered

How do I turn a podcast episode into a newsletter?

Paste a public episode or RSS link on this page, or upload the audio file. Pepys transcribes it and drafts a subject line, intro, and highlights in minutes – your first 60 minutes are free, no card required.

Can it write the subject line too?

Yes. Pepys drafts a subject line built around the episode's strongest hook, and you can ask built-in chat for a few alternatives to A/B before you send.

Will the highlights link to the right moments?

Yes – everything is built on a timestamped transcript, so each highlight carries the timestamp it came from and you can add jump-to links straight to those moments.

Can I make a newsletter from a non-English episode?

Yes. Pepys auto-detects 99+ languages and drafts the email in the spoken language, and you can translate the finished newsletter afterward.

Do you train on my episode?

Never. We don't train AI on the audio, transcripts, or drafts, and you can auto-delete uploaded files after processing.
