Show notes

How transcripts enhance accessibility and improve content discoverability.


Ellie Rubinstein, head of Pocket Casts, explains how transcripts serve as written versions of podcast episodes, making them searchable and enabling better audience engagement.


In a crowded content environment, by attaching transcripts to their episodes using the Podcasting 2.0 tags, podcasters can increase their reach and visibility on search engines.

Additionally, 2.0 transcripts allow creators to maintain control over their content, ensuring accuracy and authenticity, especially when it comes to correcting AI-generated text.
