Pods.ee Reviews

I bought podsee to help me with learning for the podcasts I listen to. This is the phrase that mattered from me in the description:
> "Mindmaps: Visualize the key ideas and concepts discussed in each episode to enhance your understanding and retention"

In reality it just gives a generic overview of the podcasts in terms more of chapters or overarching concepts (the summaries do to) which is not useful.

What I expected to see was a tree of ideas flowing and breaking down into more detail, including the concrete steps provided in the audio.

It is fantastic tool at an Unbeatable Price this tool on AppSumo. It offers incredible value for its price. I absolutely love the feature that creates mind maps of the podcast topics discussed in each episode.
Having access to the transcript and being able to jump directly to a specific section is extremely useful. The AI chat function, which allows for discussing the episode's topics, is also quite impressive. These features are truly outstanding.

I started using it and it works well.👍
It transcribes different languages ​​without any problems and almost without errors.

Even though this is a relatively new solution, it works well.
Few adjustments would be needed to make it perfect

What features am I waiting for❓
1) Manually correct, edits 📝:
◾Transcription
◾Summaries
◾Mindmap
Because sometimes AI can transcript wrong.

2) Ability to regenerate in a given specific language
◾Transcription
◾Summaries
◾Mindmap

3) Export mind maps to other formats: .mm, .mmap, .xmap, .txt, .xlsx, .csv

What needs improvement❓
◾Summary is generated in English, even though the source podcast recording was not in English
◾The mind map can have mixed English and original languages ​​from the podcast

Tried this product, want to keep it also. But following things desperately need changes.
1. Summary of the podcast is too short.
2. When we copy the trancript and put it into Chatgpt, it asks us to break it down to smaller parts, this is too much cumbersome to do in case of podcast episodes longer than 35-40 minutes or so.
3. Mindmap needs too much improvement. More importantly, creation of mindmaps need too much improvement in terms of depth of the same and correctness of the mindmaps that are being created.

Most important thing of all the above is summary creation. two paragraph summaries of 2 hour long podcast is not useful at all.

I appreciate the concept and capabilities of this service. However, I believe the credit system could be improved by implementing a tiered approach:

New podcast transcriptions: When a user requests a podcast episode that has never been transcribed or processed before, it would consume one full credit due to the higher computational costs involved.

Previously processed episodes: For podcast episodes that have already been transcribed and processed by other users, accessing this existing content should cost fewer credits or potentially be free, as the computational work has already been done.
