About

Snipd is an AI-enhanced podcast player built for people who listen to podcasts to learn rather than just to pass the time. Its central idea is simple: when a listener hears something worth remembering, a tap on the headphones saves that moment — Snipd then attaches the audio, a transcript, and an AI-generated summary so the insight is not lost.

The app works by processing episodes with AI to produce transcripts with speaker labels, automatically generated chapters, episode summaries, and other metadata. On top of that layer it adds a chat function that answers questions about episodes a user has listened to, along with export options that send highlights to note-taking tools such as Notion, Readwise, Obsidian, Glasp, Bear, and Logseq. Snipd also handles imported YouTube videos, audiobooks from Libro.fm, and uploaded audio files. The company behind Snipd makes the app available on mobile platforms, with support for CarPlay, Android Auto, and Apple Watch.

Key Features

Headphone snipping: A triple-tap on the headphones saves a key moment, and Snipd generates a "snip" containing the audio clip, transcript, and summary.
Chat with podcasts: Users can ask questions about episodes they have listened to and get answers drawn from the transcript, similar to chatting with the episode itself.
Transcripts with speaker identification: Full episode transcripts can be read and searched, with speakers identified, which supports reading along and quickly locating specific passages.
Auto-chapters and mini summaries: AI-generated chapters break episodes into navigable sections, and mini summaries show topics, guests, and key takeaways before listening.
Export and sync: Snips, including transcripts and metadata, sync to Notion, Readwise, Obsidian, Glasp, Bear, and Logseq, or export as Markdown.
Multi-format import: Users can import YouTube videos, audiobooks from Libro.fm, and their own audio files for AI processing.
Multi-language AI: The AI features support 26 languages, including English, German, Spanish, and French.

Who It's For

Snipd is aimed at podcast listeners who treat episodes as a learning resource: knowledge workers capturing ideas during commutes, students and researchers collecting material, and content creators saving quotes and clips for later use. It suits anyone who has heard a valuable passage in a podcast and had no way to record it, as well as users of note-taking systems like Notion, Readwise, or Obsidian who want podcast highlights to flow automatically into their existing knowledge base.
