Podcast Transcripts You Can Actually Search

Subalytics automatically transcribes podcast episodes the moment they publish — then lets you search, filter, and analyze every word across thousands of shows. No more scrubbing through audio to find the quote you need.

Podcasts move fast, and finding what was actually said on a show shouldn't mean replaying an hour of audio. Subalytics generates a clean, accurate podcast transcript for every episode we track — from Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and RSS feeds — and indexes it so you can search across an entire show's back catalog, or an entire industry's worth of shows, in one query. Whether you're monitoring what's being said about your brand, tracking a competitor's talking points, or building research for your own content, Subalytics turns raw podcast audio into structured, searchable text.

How Podcast Transcription Works on Subalytics

From Audio to Searchable Text in Minutes

01

We monitor the feed.

Subalytics tracks podcast RSS feeds, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts, so new episodes are picked up automatically — no manual uploads required.

02

We transcribe every episode.

Each episode is run through our transcription pipeline to produce a timestamped, speaker-labeled transcript.

03

We structure the data.

Transcripts are broken into segments, tagged with topics and entities, and linked back to the exact timestamp in the audio.

04

You search across everything.

Query a single episode, a full show, or your entire tracked universe of podcasts — and jump straight to the moment it was said.

Why Search Matters More Than the Transcript Itself

Anyone can generate a transcript of a single episode. The harder problem — and the one Subalytics actually solves — is finding a specific mention across hundreds or thousands of episodes without listening to any of them.

Brand and PR monitoring

Find every time your company, product, or executive is mentioned across podcasts, the moment it's said.

Competitive intelligence

Track what competitors, their founders, or their customers are saying in interviews and guest appearances.

Content and research

Pull sourced quotes for articles, newsletters, or reports without manually scrubbing audio.

Creator analytics

If you host a podcast yourself, see how your own talking points, guests, and topics trend over time.

Works With the Platforms You Already Listen On

Subalytics pulls episodes directly from the sources creators actually publish to:

Spotify

transcripts generated automatically as episodes go live, no need to dig through Spotify's own limited in-app transcript view.

Apple Podcasts

full transcripts even for shows where Apple's native transcript support is inconsistent or unavailable.

YouTube and video podcasts

transcripts extracted from video episodes, not just audio-only feeds.

RSS / self-hosted feeds

any show with a public feed can be added to your tracked list.

Built for Teams, Not Just Individual Episodes

Most free transcript generators are built for one episode at a time. Subalytics is built for teams who need this at scale:

  • Track dozens or hundreds of shows in one dashboard
  • Get alerted the moment a tracked keyword, brand, or competitor is mentioned
  • Export transcripts and search results for reporting
  • API access for teams who want to pipe transcript data into their own tools
