Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Podmod AI, from getting started to advanced features.

What is Podmod?

Podmod is a browser-based recording workspace for podcasts. Record solo or with guests in Studio while live AI agents surface research, fact-checks, media, and follow-ups, then leave with transcripts, episode assets, and downloads.

Getting started

What do I need to run Podmod AI?

All you need is a stable Internet connection and a microphone for Podmod to listen in.

Does Podmod AI work with my current recording stack?

Podmod runs in your browser. Use Solo Recording for single-host takes, or Recording Studio to invite guests with local multi-track capture. You can also route audio via a hardware or software mixer if you prefer an external stack. Contact [email protected] for setup help.

Does Podmod AI support Windows and macOS?

Yes. Podmod AI runs in your browser of choice (Chrome, Edge, Safari, etc.) on any operating system.

Is Podmod AI a transcription tool?

Transcription is included, but Podmod is a full recording workspace: live AI research and coaching during the take, plus episode assets, history, and downloads when you stop.

Can I record with guests?

Yes. Recording Studio lets you invite guests via a link, run a green-room tech check, capture local multi-track audio and video, and download per-participant tracks. Guest limits depend on your plan.

Speed, latency & real‑time expectations

How close to real time is Podmod AI?

Podmod AI operates in near-real time, typically low seconds end-to-end, by running fast AI models and parallel web lookups. In practice, it surfaces relevant links and follow-ups faster than a human can search and skim the content.

Information Accuracy

How accurate is the information from Podmod?

While AI models can make mistakes, Podmod AI prioritizes credible sources of information and always cites its sources when providing answers.

Overlays, screens, and attention management

Can I share content from Podmod to my audience?

Yes, if you broadcast video with your podcast, you can share content from Podmod with your audience using the video software of your choice by displaying the browser tab Podmod is running in.

Can I access content from past recordings?

Yes! All your previous sessions are saved and accessible from your dashboard, so you can revisit the research, sources, and content cards from any past recording.

Can I search for more of the content that Podmod gives me?

Yes. Click the outlink button at the top-right of any card to open a Google results page with the query pre-filled and searched, so you can quickly see more articles, images, or videos for that topic.

Suggested questions & interviewing

Can Podmod propose follow-ups during a podcast or interview?

Yes. The Producer Coach agent suggests follow-up questions, fresh angles, and devil's-advocate notes while you record. You can also use Interview Rundown to draft questions and auto-check them off as the conversation covers them.

Does Podmod speak or participate in the conversation?

No. Podmod works silently in the background. All research and suggestions appear as on-screen cards that you can glance at whenever you need them, keeping your conversation natural and uninterrupted.

Can I prep materials before recording?

Yes. Add notes, files, URLs, and guest bios in Session Context, or personalize Podmod with custom instructions, including researching your show from a link.

Does Podmod save my recordings?

Yes. Podmod records your podcast audio during the session, and once you finish you can download a high-quality .mp3 file. Studio sessions also provide per-participant track downloads and mixdowns.

It is always good to be transparent with your guests! Disclose that you are using Podmod, briefly explain what it does, and note that guest audio will be processed and recorded (for export and transcription).

Exports and transcripts

Can Podmod record and export audio?

Yes. Download solo session audio after recording, or per-participant studio tracks and mixdowns from Session Viewer.

Does Podmod AI generate full transcripts?

Yes. You can export the full transcript right after you finish your session.

Does Podmod generate show notes or chapters?

Yes. After a session you can generate episode descriptions, show notes, chapter markers, and best moments, then edit and save them in Session Viewer.

Languages

Is Podmod English‑only?

English is prioritized today. Multi‑language detection and code‑switching are coming soon!

Pricing & limits

How is Podmod priced?

See pricing page for details.

Are there usage caps?

Yes. See pricing page for details on the usage caps per plan. You can upgrade your plan for additional recording hours.

Intellectual property & attribution

Can I show screenshots of articles on‑air?

Does Podmod create copyrighted content?
