You can now import an externally-generated script, letting Jellypod match script speakers to your account's existing host voices. If a speaker cannot be matched to an existing host, Jellypod will intelligently create a new host with a suitable voice from our Voice Library.
Say you wrote a multi-host interview in ChatGPT or a Google Doc. Import the script to Jellypod and as long as you put an existing host name on each speaker's lines, Jellypod will match it correctly. Any names where Jellypod can't find a match and only exist in the script are created automatically with a fitting voice and a short backstory. No setup beforehand required.
How to use it
- Open the Create Something New page and select Upload Existing Script.
- Add your script. Paste it in, or upload a plain text, Markdown, or PDF file. Marking speakers in brackets like
[Alex]gives the cleanest results, but plain prose works too - Jellypod detects who is speaking. - Review the preview. Every speaker it finds is listed, each tagged to show whether it matches an existing host or will be created as a new one.
- Import. Jellypod matches speakers to your podcast's regular hosts first, then the rest of your account, and creates a new host for anyone left, picking a voice in the script's language and writing a backstory from their lines.
Note: Newly created hosts don't impact your podcast's regular hosts and only apply for this specific episode. When this happens, a banner above the script editor will allow you to "Update Podcast" to sync your podcast's default cast to these hosts.
