Four formats, not one

Every episode below was generated from the same set of notes on mitosis, so you can hear exactly what changes between them. Nothing here is a mockup.

Solo

3 min

One host walks through the material, start to finish.

HostLet’s walk through mitosis in order, as if we were identifying cells under a microscope. Mitosis is the division of one nucleus into two genetically identical nuclei. Its main stages are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Best for: First pass on something new, when you want it explained rather than discussed.

Conversation

3 min

Two hosts talk it through together.

AnnaWhen we talk about mitosis, what exactly is dividing?

MarcoOne nucleus divides into two genetically identical nuclei. Then cytokinesis divides the cytoplasm, producing two daughter cells.

AnnaSo where does prophase begin?

MarcoThe DNA copied before mitosis coils and condenses into visible chromosomes. Each chromosome has two identical sister chromatids joined at a centromere.

Best for: A topic that needs turning over, where hearing someone ask the obvious question helps.

Drill

3 min

Quick questions, with a real pause to answer in before the response comes.

HostWhat is mitosis, and what is its stage order?

HostMitosis is the division of one nucleus into two genetically identical nuclei. Its stages are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase, followed by cytokinesis.

HostWhat happens during prophase, and how can you recognise it?

HostCopied DNA coils and condenses into visible chromosomes. Each chromosome has two identical sister chromatids joined at a centromere.

Best for: The night before, when you need to retrieve it rather than recognise it.

Debate

3 min

Two hosts argue opposite sides.

AnnaMitosis is easiest to understand as a strict sequence. One nucleus becomes two genetically identical nuclei.

MarcoI agree about the order, but I read the stages mainly as microscope clues. In prophase, copied DNA condenses into visible chromosomes.

AnnaThat microscopic reading is useful, but the key event is preparation. The nucleolus disappears, and the nuclear envelope may still be partly visible early on.

MarcoThen metaphase gives us the clearest visual test. Spindle fibres attach to kinetochores at the centromeres.

Best for: Anything with more than one defensible position: essays, ethics, interpretation.

An AI podcast maker that starts from your own material

The episode is written from what you give it, not from what a model happens to know about the topic. That is the difference between revision and a general explainer.

Notes to podcast

Paste a chapter you typed, or photograph handwritten notes. The episode is built from your own material, not from a general answer about the topic.

PDF to podcast

Upload a lecture PDF, a textbook chapter or a set of slides, up to 10MB, and listen to it on the way in.

Text to podcast

Any text at all: an article you pasted, a summary you wrote, a transcript. If you can paste it, it can be an episode.

It is not only audio

The same note also becomes a visual summary, a mind map, a deck of flashcards and a quiz. The episode is one output of five, built from one upload. You can see all of them together on any of the free study guides, which were made this way.

Questions

How long does an episode take to make?
About a minute for a three minute episode. You can leave the page while it renders; it keeps going and is waiting when you come back.
How is this different from NotebookLM's audio overview?
Four formats instead of one. NotebookLM gives you two hosts in conversation; here you can also have a single narrator, a question and answer drill with a pause to answer in, or a debate between two positions. The episode also sits next to the visual note, the mind map and the flashcards built from the same source.
Can I download the audio?
Yes, every episode downloads as an MP3, and each one comes with the full transcript so you can read along or skim it instead.
What does it cost?
The free plan includes 3 minutes a month, which is one short episode. Plus includes 60 minutes a month, and a single episode can run up to 10 minutes.
What language are the episodes in?
By default the episode follows the language of your source, so Spanish notes give you a Spanish episode. You can also pick the output language yourself.
