Podcast Transcript API
Podcast transcripts from RSS, Apple Podcasts or audio URLs: publisher transcript or Whisper STT.
What it does
Podcast Transcript API is an MCP server, a connector that lets an AI assistant use it as a tool. It is hosted: an assistant connects to it over the internet, nothing to install.
From the publisher's description, Electra Index matched it to one capability: speech transcription. That makes it a candidate for tasks such as transcribe audio and video or take meeting notes.
Facts come from the Official MCP Registry, as declared by the publisher. Capabilities are matched automatically (low confidence) and are not a test of the tool.
