Show HN: Podcast Audiograms – Make clips with captions, title and audio waves

Hi all! Lenny from Milk Video here.<p>Last week, our team released a way to quickly turn podcasts into social audiograms. There is no sign up necessary and its entirely free to use! We are trying to get feedback and would love your input!<p>Audiograms have been a popular way to create a podcast trailer to share on social media.<p>If you have a podcast or a video event series, we would love your feedback!<p>Feel free to comment here and I&#x27;ll follow along, or also email me directly at lenny@milkvideo.com<p>Thank you!

I was just looking for something like this. We&#x27;ve had several podcast recently, but sharing the entire clip to social media doesn&#x27;t get the same engagement. Can&#x27;t wait to try this. Thanks!

Hi Lenny!<p>This looks tempting. I use Headliner [0] when making promotional clips for my conference (here&#x27;s an example [1].)<p>I do pay for their premium service. Have you compared Milk Video with Headliner? Would I be able to switch to yours?<p>&gt; There is no sign up necessary and its entirely free to use!<p>For how long is this true?<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;headliner.app" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;headliner.app</a><p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;AbnerCoimbre&#x2F;status&#x2F;1314292021792702464" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;AbnerCoimbre&#x2F;status&#x2F;1314292021792702464</a>

Interesting as a web-based tool, potentially very useful.<p>Overcast has similar functionality that Marco has buried a little too deep in the app for most people to find.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;marco.org&#x2F;2019&#x2F;04&#x2F;27&#x2F;overcast-clip-sharing" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;marco.org&#x2F;2019&#x2F;04&#x2F;27&#x2F;overcast-clip-sharing</a>

Nice product execution!<p>If you want to provide easy onboarding for users to search &amp; select episodes, we&#x27;ve got a podcast search api: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.listennotes.com&#x2F;api&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.listennotes.com&#x2F;api&#x2F;</a>

Compared to other Audiogram tools I&#x27;ve used, this is really easy. Processing time is a bit long, but I did test it with a 2 hour podcast.<p>I have a couple feature suggestions that I think would be really helpful to podcast producers. Our show has mp3 chapters, and we also include matching time codes in our show notes. If you could read one (or both) of those you could suggest segments for users to clip out.<p>It would also be great if you could read a RSS feed and use that as an input in addition to uploading single files.

It&#x27;s always magical to see a use case be elevated to a built-in feature. I was doing exactly this with Milk.video for a few podcasts [1]. I&#x27;m excited to try this out!<p>[1] Example: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;aakashdotio&#x2F;status&#x2F;1359160836435169280" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;aakashdotio&#x2F;status&#x2F;1359160836435169280</a>

Nice work! The UI is really simple - and love not having to log in to use it. Have you thought about leveraging the ListenNotes API (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.listennotes.com&#x2F;api&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.listennotes.com&#x2F;api&#x2F;</a>) to automatically pull in the podcast episodes via search vs having to upload them?

Impressive. Didn&#x27;t expect it to be automatically text&#x2F;captioned. There are other things like this around that make waveform audiograms. Could the text be turned off optionally?<p>Anyways, very nice for a free clip maker with logo and no watermark.

Awesome work! This looks great!<p>One feature I would love to see is the ability to upload multiple audio clips at the same time. That would differentiate you from the competition

Would love to hear about your tech stack, approach, etc.

Genius product idea! Excited to see folks using it.

This was super smooth. Way easier than the other audiogram generators I&#x27;ve used. Awesome work!

This looks awesome! Can’t wait to try it out for some of our marketing materials!

Could this be used for Instagram?
