Just tried asking "how to launch on Product Hunt" (here's the query). Impressive!
Calin Drimbau
@basilakis try it again... we were just in the middle of an update

Hey PH fam, Excited to share an exciting AI tool that's helpful if you're a big podcast nerd like me and love Lenny Rachitsky's pod. Discover brilliant insights from Lenny's vast (and fast-growing) collection of interviews using this nifty little tool.
Trevin Chow
Super cool, love this! One suggestion is to start the clip playback slightly earlier and need slightly later. I’ve found it cuts off too soon before it skips to the next result.
Calin Drimbau
thanks @trevin, good observation! We'll need to play with these parameters!
Usama Ejaz
Congratulations on the launch of Lenny's Podcast Search! An amazing tool to easily find the latest podcast content. Well done!
Calin Drimbau
@usamaejaz Thank you Usama!

Thank you @thisiskp_ for hunting our product! Hello everyone! I am Calin, and I couldn't be more excited to share broadn's latest product drop: Lenny's Podcast Search with the Product Hunt community. I've been a massive fan of @lenny_rachitsky, devouring every single edition of his newsletter. So when I found out he was launching a podcast, I knew it would be huge. I'm a product person, and we all know how difficult it is to find reliable expert advice in the product world these days. This product is exactly what it says on the tin. A search engine on top of Lenny's Podcast content. Well, an intelligent search engine, I should say (for those of you technically inclined, we are running vector embedding search). This marks the first step for the broadn team in realizing our vision of creating a truly personalized learning experience, powered by generative AI. There's a lot more we can and will do with this product. This is a beginning, and we wanted to put this experience in front of you as early as possible to get your feedback. What else would you like to see in the product? How can we make it better? We're here all day to answer questions and engage. So please feel free to ask away!

@thisiskp_ @lenny_rachitsky @calin_drimbau This is very cool. Is it possible for doing this for all my video content? I can use any tool? :)
Calin Drimbau
@thisiskp_ @lenny_rachitsky @rohanrecommends happy to have a chat! will ping you on telegram/whatsapp
Adam Berke
I already inundate my team with podcast episodes to listen to, I hope this can help me be more precise in what I share!
Calin Drimbau
@adamberke... and a feature request there... clips should be sharable! Fortunately, this one is high on our list!
Sanjay Panchal
Amazing, thanks for this. Have gotten into the habit of saving a lot of episodes of podcasts (especially Lenny's) but never doing anything with them. This makes it so much easier to go back and get specific insights or find ones I should listen to that I've not heard yet
Calin Drimbau
@sanjay_panchal Imagine when you start asking questions and we start summarising key insights from multiple experts in the answers! 👀
Victor Paraschiv
@sanjay_panchal We've heard the same from other people. That's why we decided to start with @lenny_rachitsky . What other podcasts do you listen to?
Neil Gujar
This is so cool! Been looking for something like this a while - kudos team. Will you be and to do this for Paul Graham? Or even, could I choose a mixture of people who I want to the engine to index?
Calin Drimbau
@neilgujar soon! The ability to empower users to select whom to hear from is one we're already contemplating!
Calin Drimbau
@neilgujar btw... who would you like us to index next?
Kacper Zambrzycki
Alright, that's pretty dope. Much needed since everyone knows how big of a pain it is to find relevant bits of knowledge within podcasts... And what's a better startup/product pod to start with if not Lenny's?! Great stuff, looking forward to the launch of the broadn platform! 💪
Edric Subur
Love this and how seamless it surfaced the result! Can’t wait to have this available for audio books!
Calin Drimbau
@edric_subur thanks Edric! What would be 1-2 audiobooks you'd want to use it for?
Pratham Chawla
Impressive and Innovative! Can't wait to see how it evolves and what other features are in store. Keep up the good work, team! I am curious about what the future holds for Lenny's Podcast Search, can you share any upcoming features or developments planned for it?
Calin Drimbau
@prathamchawla We have many - they all converge toward an intelligent learning assistant. So we're expanding search with summaries of key ideas and then looking into generating personalized learning material from scratch for every user. It will be like private school on steroids! :)
Raul Andrisan
This is a pretty cool concept! Can't wait to have something similar for the top 100 podcasts. Congrats to the team for shipping this!
Calin Drimbau
@raulandrisan thanks Raul! We're excited to expand the content set and add new features as well!
Hena
Interesting discovery tool for subjects across Lenny’s podcast! Cant wait to see how you integrate it across other podcasts. The possibilities... 👀🥳. Congrats!
Calin Drimbau
@henamh Who would you like to see on next Hena from the podcasters?
Hena
@calin_drimbau Tim Ferris would have been one. But actually, I bet Steven Bartlett would love it if you did it for him! It's almost like re-organising content in a completely different way for people to digest that suits them. Let me know once it's done! :)
Calin Drimbau
@henamh Got it! Will keep you posted!
Harry Hubble
This is so cool. I like the website too. Personalised learning seems like one of the most powerful applications of GenAI yet. I love the first drop, when's the next one?!
Calin Drimbau
@harry_hubble1 we're going for a drop a month!
Monji Batmunkh
Solves an important pain point for avid podcast listeners. It makes zero-ing in on what I am lookin for so much easier, and searching a specific knowledge and perspective in the podcast-world has been very difficult. Will this be rolled out to All-in podcast soon? That would be epic!
Calin Drimbau
@monji_batmunkh we can definitely bump All-in to the top of the list, although the besties aren't the most structured in their conversations!
Monji Batmunkh
@calin_drimbau if you tweet at Jcal, I am gonna jump in to support you. The pod really needs a search function. The other day, I was trying to find Chamath’s take on new battery tech using iron, but gave up.
Hardik Jain
Liked the UI. I have also launched a search engine for the Veritasium YouTube Channel a few weeks ago. Check out: https://www.producthunt.com/post...
Marius Fanu
Amazing! This is the Google of Lenny Podcasts! Would love to see the product get integrated to more podcasts. Keep up the great work!
Calin Drimbau
@mariusfanu Thanks Marius! Grateful for the nice words. On what podcast/content would you like to see it next?
Joel Chan
💡 Bright idea
Very cool idea... Would be good if I could save the results and build up my own little repository of content. Looking forward to seeing how it evolves and what other drops you have coming!
Vlad D.
Really useful for podcasts nerds that need their information fast on certain topics. Integrate this with other top podcasts and having it all in one place would be really valuable. Go team!
Calin Drimbau
@vlaxor thank you! the goal is to bring in more top podcasts on board and even expand to other content forms like Youtube!
Michael Magdongon
I checked this out the other day and had one of those, "wish I would've thought of that" moments. Great job on this and I look forward to seeing how it develops!
Calin Drimbau
@michael_magdongon thanks Michael! We'll keep you posted on developments!
