* Some websites or apps claim to have over 3,636,163 podcasts in their database. However,
they often inflate these numbers by including:
1) Podcasts that were deleted long ago.
2) Very low-quality content, such as feeds with no episodes, just a short test clip, or AI-generated audio.
3) Non-audio content, like RSS feeds containing only PDFs.
In contrast, we use 24/7 automated scripts and human moderators to ensure our database includes
genuine, human-crafted podcasts, not AI-generated junk.
Doorzoek alle podcasts op het hele internet.
Luisteraars vinden ALLE afleveringen van podcasts die interviews afnemen met of praten over een persoon.
Journalisten doen onderzoek en vinden informatie in podcasts.
Studenten leren over specifieke onderwerpen door podcasts.
Podcasters vinden mogelijkheden voor wederzijdse promotie.
Ontwikkelaars gebruiken Listen API om apps voor podcasts te bouwen.
Stel uw eigen podcast-afspeellijsten samen
Voeg individuele afleveringen toe aan Listen Later-afspeellijsten. Het is net als Instapaper of Pocket, maar dan voor podcasts.
Het is niet nodig om je te abonneren op podcasts en de meeste afleveringen niet af te spelen.
Zet Listen Later-afspeellijsten via RSS over naar uw favoriete app voor het afspelen van podcasts.
FAQ
1. Who built Listen Notes? 🔗
We are a small but highly efficient team in San
Francisco.
Listen Notes was started as a side project by Wenbin
Fang, who quit his day job from Nextdoor
3201 days and 4 hours ago
(Dec. 2016). Listen Notes, Inc was incorporated as a Delaware C-Corp in October 2017.
2. Why do you build Listen Notes? 🔗
Listen Notes was birthed out of a personal need.
Our founder Wenbin Fang is an avid podcast
listener, who listen to 5+ hours
podcasts every day.
However, even when he subscribed to only 10 or so podcasts in the past, he still couldn’t listen to
every
single episode.
Besides, not all episodes are worth hearing. Wenbin longed for a tool that allowed me to search
across plenty
of podcast episodes surrounding a specific topic,
without the need to subscribe, scrub, and scroll through hours of audio.
The bad news was that Wenbin couldn’t find a good podcast search tool in early 2017.
The good news is that he knows how to write code.
Listen Notes began as a side project.
It is yet another "I can
build this in a weekend"-ish project.
But the more Wenbin works on Listen Notes, the more he is convinced that podcasting has a bright
future —
and Listen Notes may play an important role in the podcast movement.
How we use Listen Notes to discover and listen to podcasts on a daily basis:

3. I'm a podcaster. I have many questions... 🔗
We have a dedicated page to answer podcaster-specific questions:
Info for Podcasters.
4. What technologies do you use to build Listen Notes? 🔗
We've got an old blog post talking about Listen Notes tech stack:
The boring technology behind a one-person Internet company
Warning: The info in this blog post is a bit outdated, because Listen Notes, like any online
services, evolves on a daily basis.
But the blog post is still useful for people who just get started building their own online
services, e.g., websites, apps...
5. Do you sell the podcast database? Do you provide API for developers to use? 🔗
Yes, you can buy the podcast database from us. You can
also export small datasets to
CSV files.
We provide a simple and no-nonsense podcast API that is used by thousands of
developers and companies to build apps and services.
6. What's next for Listen Notes? 🔗
At Listen Notes, we make podcasts accessible to all people in the world.
Our website listennotes.com is used by over 2,000,000 people every month to discover interesting
podcast contents.
Our Podcast API is used by thousands of developers and companies to build apps
and services, which accelerates the innovation in the podcast application space.
Whatever we do (and will do) are to improve our website listennotes.com and our Podcast
API.
7. What if Apple or Google builds their own podcast search engine? 🔗
These big companies seem to have infinite resources and they seem to be able to build anything and
crush
anyone.
The question is: Should they?
The fact is, if a project is not a top priority for decision makers,
they just send a B team or C team to work on it. So usually small startups are not competing with
the
big company.
They are competing with the B teams or C teams inside the big company.
Currently, podcasting is a small market for Apple or Google. When they begin viewing podcasts
seriously,
the podcast market is already vast enough to allow multiple players to exist.
It's a healthy market if there are multiple choices for customers.
Trader Joe's, Safeway, and Whole Foods exist alongside tons of mom and pop grocery stores.
We built Listen Notes, because we had no patience to wait for other companies to build a great
podcast search engine.
And Listen Notes
became useful to other people.
If Apple or Google builds a better mousetrap, that’ll be a good thing for the podcast industry and
listeners.
Until that sweet day, we hope Listen Notes serves you well.
8. How can I browse ALL podcasts of a genre, a country, or a language without searching a specific keyword? 🔗
You can't browse all podcasts using our podcast search engine.
This is like you can't browse all websites on Google.
But we do have a solution for you: Listen Datasets.
9. How can I get transcripts for any podcasts? 🔗
