Glad the appointment worked out for you.
Of course. Shall we get started right away?
Yes – I'll record the conversation, is that okay?
Podcasts are often a creator's most important content source, but audio alone doesn't index in Google. DeepScript transcribes episodes automatically with speaker diarization and word-level timestamps – so you can produce show notes, SEO blog posts and social snippets from one recording. A typical one-hour episode costs €0.18 and is ready in 2-5 minutes.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How much does a typical podcast cost?+
Standard model: €0.18/hour. Premium (better for conversation and guest names): €0.27/hour. For most podcasters the 9 cents extra for Premium pays for itself many times over in saved editing time.
Are speakers automatically separated?+
Yes, in both tiers. If you know there are exactly 2 speakers ahead of time, you can set that as a hint at upload – improves separation on audio with background noise.
Can I create YouTube subtitles from this?+
Yes. SRT and VTT export are included in every transcription – both formats are accepted by YouTube directly. Word timestamps make the timing accurate to 100 ms.
Does the audio stay with you or is it deleted?+
Standard: automatically deleted after 30 days. With the Pro subscription (€22/month) audio + transcript stay permanently, accessible to AI agents via MCP.
