thanks and agreed! we see a massive distrust in traditional legacy media, and hopefully PodSnacks can give readers more control about how they access those voices.

yep. won't go into each cost, but it's primarily:

1) transcription (Assembly) 2) summarization (Claude) 3) podcast database (listennotes) 4) emails (postmark) 5) application hosting (render)

PodSnacks (https://podsnacks.org) — Personalized AI summaries of top podcasts, delivered to your inbox.

I've been building PodSnacks because I found it overwhelming to keep up with podcasts across tech, business, and science. PodSnacks uses LLMs to summarize the most popular episodes from shows like Lex Fridman, Acquired, All-In, Invest Like the Best, and more.

You choose your favorite shows, and we email you short, high-signal summaries — no audio to skim through, no endless backlog guilt.

So far:

126K+ episode summaries generated 92K+ hours of podcasts processed 48–50% open rates 2,900+ early users

Still iterating and adding features like bundling by theme, language translations, and audio feeds.

If you're the kind of person who wants more inputs without more noise — would love for you to check it out.

Always open to feedback from HN!
