Podcast Book Radar
Auto-extract books mentioned in your favorite podcasts into a reading list
- Problem
- You hear a great book recommendation on a podcast, then forget it, and later can't find which episode or minute it came from; jotting it down breaks the listening flow.
- Solution
- Subscribe to podcasts and let the app transcribe episodes and extract book titles with surrounding context into a searchable podcast book library, filterable by show, topic, or recommender, exportable to Notion, Obsidian, or a reading list.
- Users
- Heavy podcast listeners, avid readers, and knowledge workers.
- MVP
- Accept RSS feed URLs; transcribe and run entity extraction for book titles with timestamps; generate a searchable list; add a save-to-reading-list bucket; English podcasts only at launch.
- Revenue
- Free tier limited to 3 podcasts; paid subscription unlocks more shows, full-text search, and export integrations.
- Why now
- Transcription costs have dropped and LLM book-title extraction is accurate enough; few podcast search products go deep on the 'book' entity.
