Turn text into a podcast with AI

Reading an article aloud is not always a good episode. Web text may rely on headings, charts and links that the listener cannot see.

The short answer

Extract one central question, rewrite the text as a spoken script, explain visuals and references, choose narration, generate a short sample, then listen to and correct the full episode before sharing.

  • Adapt rather than read verbatim
  • Explain visual information in words
  • Check rights and pronunciation

Adapt written text in four steps

0 / 4 steps · Progress is saved in this browser

  1. Trim the source

    Choose the material that answers one clear question. A long article does not need to become a word-for-word recording.

  2. Translate the visuals

    Replace “as shown above” with a useful spoken explanation. Summarize a chart without reading every cell.

  3. Choose structure and voices

    Use one narrator for a linear story. Add a second voice only when it brings genuine questions, examples or contrast.

  4. Test and export

    Listen to the first minute, fix difficult names and check text, music and voice rights before sharing the complete audio.

Example

A chart becomes a sentence

Instead of saying “as shown in the chart above”, explain the change: “Subscriptions rose steadily for three months, then fell in April”. Cite the underlying data when relevant.

Choose the output deliberately

Single narrator

Clear for articles, lessons and announcements.

Frequently asked questions

Can I convert any article?

Not automatically. Check copyright, permission and how the text may be reused.

Should I keep every paragraph?

No. Prioritise listener comprehension and preserve essential facts and context.

Can I use my own voice?

That depends on the tool and its recording or voice-cloning conditions. Never use someone else’s voice without consent.

Should I keep citations?

Yes, especially when the episode includes figures, quotations or checkable claims.
