Getting Started

What is Podwise?

Podwise is an AI learning tool for podcast listeners. It turns episodes into structured knowledge you can read, search, and revisit, instead of scrubbing through hours of audio.

For each processed episode, Podwise generates:

Summary with chapters and key Q&A
Mindmap of the episode’s structure
Transcript with speaker labels and timestamps
Keywords, Highlights, and Shownotes

You can also ask questions across podcasts with Ask AI, chat with a single episode, translate content, save key moments as Clips, and send everything to your note-taking apps.

Can I use Podwise for free?

Every monthly and annual subscription starts with a 7-day free trial, whether you subscribe on the web or in the app, so you can try every feature before you are billed. Cancel before the trial ends and you won’t be charged. One-time purchase plans don’t include a trial. See How does the 7-day free trial work? for details.

Without an active subscription, you can still browse and search podcasts, but you can’t process new episodes or open AI content for episodes you haven’t unlocked before. Compare what each plan includes on the plan comparison page .
