Every episode you’ve made, in one searchable podcast archive

Somewhere in your back catalog is the answer a listener is looking for right now. Without transcripts, they can't find it, and neither can you.

PodRewind turns your RSS feed into a public archive where every episode is transcribed, every speaker is named, and every word can be searched: your first 5 episodes free, and the full back catalog on a paid plan.

From RSS feed to searchable archive

You keep publishing the way you do now. The archive builds itself from the feed.

Step 1

Add your RSS feed

Paste the feed URL you already give to podcast apps. PodRewind reads your episodes from it, so there is nothing to upload or re-export.

Step 2

Every episode becomes a transcript

Each episode is transcribed with timestamps, and the people talking are labeled by name instead of 'Speaker B'.

Step 3

Your archive goes live

Episodes publish to a public archive at yourshow.podrewind.com: a page for every episode, and one search box that covers every word you've said.

What each plan covers: Free transcribes and publishes 5 episodes per feed, with no card required. Your full back catalog comes with Creator ($19/mo) or Pro ($39/mo): every past episode is transcribed when you upgrade, and new ones are added as they're published. The first 1,000 hours of back catalog are included; past that, older episodes are a one-time $0.20 per hour of audio. Compare plans

What your listeners get

A way into the whole show, not just the latest episode.

Search every word

A listener types a topic, a guest or a half-remembered line and gets the moments it came up, across the whole show.

Jump straight to the moment

Each episode page has the full transcript with clickable timestamps and an audio player, so a result plays from the right second.

Know who said it

Each line shows who's speaking, which makes interview shows and panels easy to follow on the page.

What you get

Years of work that keeps bringing people in.

A page for every episode

Each episode gets its own page that search engines can crawl, so people can find your show through what was said in it. Indexing can be switched off in your wiki settings.

Answer listener questions with a link

"Which episode was that?" gets a link to the exact moment, not a guess and a timestamp from memory.

One archive, many uses

On the Creator and Pro plans, the same transcripts power show notes, social posts and newsletters, and chat that answers questions from your back catalog.

Questions about podcast archives

How do I make my podcast searchable?

Add your show's RSS feed to PodRewind. Episodes are transcribed with speaker labels and published to a public archive with a search box that covers every transcript. Free covers 5 episodes; a paid plan covers your full back catalog.

Do I need to upload audio files?

No. PodRewind reads your episodes from the RSS feed you already publish, so there is nothing to export or upload.

Where does the archive live?

At yourshow.podrewind.com by default. On the Pro plan, the archive can live on your own domain instead.

Can search engines find my archive?

Yes. By default every episode has its own page that search engines can crawl. You can turn indexing off in your wiki settings if you want the archive to stay out of search results.

What does it cost to archive my whole back catalog?

Free covers 5 episodes per feed. Creator ($19/mo) and Pro ($39/mo) cover every episode. The first 1,000 hours of back catalog are included on either plan; past that, older episodes are a one-time $0.20 per hour of audio. Details are on the pricing page.

What happens to the archive if I cancel?

Your plan runs to the end of the billing period, then your feed returns to the free tier of 5 episodes. Upgrading again restores the full archive.

Your first 5 episodes, searchable for free

Add your feed and see your own episodes in the archive before you decide on the rest of the catalog.
