Hi Podcasters, meet Seeker. It enables your listeners to do full-text search of your podcast and share any interesting clips they find on social media. You get to leverage their audience to grow and see what parts of your content are really resonating.
I'm creating Seeker because it's a tool that I want to exist. There's a lot of useful information in podcasts that I want to revisit but no good way to look for it. I created a tool to resurface useful moments from podcasts that I listen to.
There are a lot of 'podcast search engine' type products out there. Most aren't full text search and definitely don't involve the creator. I want Seeker to help build a conversation between podcast creators and their listeners. We can enable listeners to find and share moments from their favorite podcasts and, by involving podcasters, provide them with useful insights.
Since indexing the podcasts is expensive (in time or compute), I've only included 10 podcasts that I listen to. Ultimately, each creator will need to sign-up for Seeker to index their podcast. Please suggest your favorite shows, so I can reach out to the creators and express your interest.
great idea, I actually see myself using this to find a podcast that talked about a topic that I am interested in but I forgot which one it was.
at the moment I bookmark all of the podcasts/YouTube videos and categorize them but this can be super helpful.
I think YouTube search goes based on. what is said in their videos as well.
How easily can podcasters integrate Seeker with their existing platforms? Does Seeker work with various podcast hosting platforms, and how does it ensure compatibility?
@ricardo_luz Thanks! These are really good points
Iβd like to add some more integrations like an embedded version that could be added to any website (specific integration by hosting provider could also be useful here)
As for compatibility, right now, I just need an RSS feed, so seeker will be compatible no matter the podcast hosting provider
Increased engagement: Seeker allows listeners to share clips from your podcast on social media, which can help to increase engagement with your content.
Very useful service! I am temporarily not recording podcasts, but when I return to them I will definitely try - tracking which fragments really resonate with listeners is a very important point. Kudos for the launch
@millman Thanks! Let me know when youβre back into recording. Hopefully we can chat soon π
Iβm happy to hear that the insights pitch resonates with you π
