Curating the best podcast clips for you

VISIT STARTUP

Overlap is a new, YC-backed podcast app that uses AI to curate the best podcast moments FOR YOU. We replace full episodes with clips, subscriptions with topic-based podcast clip playlists, and top charts with personalized recommendations.Hi Product Hunt fam đŸ˜»

Like so many of you, we at Overlap (YC S24) love podcasts. Our CEO Jonathan’s favorite podcast has long been Acquired, Casey’s is Impaulsive (how Gen Z) and mine is Freakonomics.

But these days, more and more people are engaging with podcasts in new ways:

⏱Through clips instead of full-length episodes đŸ•”ïžThrough topic-based searches instead of via subscriptions ✹Through algorithmic recommendations on social media, not global podcast charts

We think the podcast apps aren’t adapting to this future - so for the past year we’ve been building Overlap.

Overlap is a new iOS mobile app that uses AI to curate the best podcast moments for you.

Each day, we’ll send you personalized clip-based playlists on topics you’re interested in – whether that’s Is Consumer Space Travel Here?, Kevin Hart’s Funniest Moments, or A Brief History of Credit Cards. Or if you have a topic in mind, prompt our AI to generate a custom playlist for you.

Please reach out at admin@joinoverlap.com if you have ANY feedback at all and thank you so much for reading this far and considering downloading Overlap.@buzz_rubenstein Cheers to the team for launching this! Wishing you an extraordinary journey ahead. What’s the story behind the product's name?@kjosephabraham ah good q! Here’s the name origin: For any topic on Overlap, overlapping voices and clips come together from different podcasts to make one playlist.@a_zelenkov yes! Users can generate playlists now actually (and share them via text) but would be interesting to see what others are generating in-app@a_zelenkov Great callout. Users can generate their own playlists and share them with anyone but not yet in-app. Some kind of feed to see what kind of playlists people are generating could be very interesitng.Pretty cool! I listen to certain podcasts 🔄 and this sounds like a good "refreshing" to switch to something new. How many users do you have RN approximately?@busmark_w_nika One more if you join :)I love podcasts. This is a cool way to listen to the snippets of many different ones. Signed up and downloaded. First impressions are very good . Congrats on the launch!@simona_o_neill3 woohoo thanks so much Simona!! Excited to hear your further feedback if you have any.Great job Team! Happy to see you curating such an incredibly amount of podcasts, making us to focus on what really matters for us.
