Intelligent Web Search

Jellypod will now intelligently decide if it should search the internet for up-to-date information to enhance your podcast.

Formerly known as Deep Search, Web Search is now turned on by default for all new episodes. To prevent the agent from searching the web to enhance it’s outputs, you can toggle it off under the Settings Gear icon when creating a new podcast episode.

Iterate to Perfection Without Consuming Credits

You can shape a podcast episode without watching your credit balance.

Drafting a script, rewriting it, auditioning voices, switching templates, and re-rendering all cost nothing. Credits are charged when Jellypod generates something: 1 credit per 2 seconds of narration, 7 credits per generated image, and 20 credits per generated video clip. Publishing, scheduling, downloading, and re-rendering are free.

So iterate on the script as much as you like, then generate once it reads the way you want. If you change your mind afterwards, regenerating narration is free, and regenerating a single visual costs 7 credits.

Your credit balance carries over unchanged between billing cycles for one month, and purchased top-ups never expire.

For the full picture, see Credits Are Charged When You Generate and Understanding Credits.

Introducing the Jellypod Content Agent

Jellypod is now built around a familiar AI agent chat flow.

Describe what you want to create and the Jellypod Agent takes it from there - researching your topic, writing the script, generating audio, and suggesting next steps along the way.

You can ask Jellypod to rewrite sections, change the video template or orientation, and publish the podcast episode when you're ready. No more clicking through buttons and pages to get things done.

The experience is magical. Tell Jellypod what you need, review the output, and iterate with Jellypod as your co-creator until perfection.

A New Look for Magic Video Slides

Magic Video (now AI Video Generator) slides just got a major upgrade! We've added five new slide templates, improved how the AI picks them, and polished the overall look and feel.

Slides now come in nine styles, up from four. Here's what's new:

  1. Stat: Highlights a key number or metric in large, bold text.
  2. Timeline: Shows a sequence of events or milestones in order.
  3. Comparison: Places two sides of a topic next to each other, great for pros and cons, or before and after.
  4. Icon Grid: Displays a set of features or ideas with icons, headings, and short descriptions.
  5. Split Image: Combines an AI-generated image with text, side by side. These join the existing title, bullet, quote, and image templates.

Better variety across your video

The AI now picks slides with the full episode in mind, not just one section at a time. That means more variety and fewer repetitive slides.

Every slide has been visually refreshed with cleaner layouts and better text sizing. Slides now animate in smoothly, with each element appearing one after another for a more polished feel.

Pronunciation Preview

You can now preview how a pronunciation sounds with any of your AI hosts.

Each entry in your pronunciation guide now has a speaker icon that generates example audio using your specific pronunciation. Click the button to see a dropdown with all your hosts, pick one to generate the preview, and you'll hear that host's voice pronounce the phonetic spelling instantly.

Each host may pronounce things slightly differently, so if you have multiple hosts with different voices, you can quickly switch between them to compare how each one handles the word.

Now you can test and refine pronunciations in a few seconds before ever touching your script or consuming credits.

Analytics now include website video plays

Your analytics dashboard now includes video plays from your Jellypod-hosted podcast website, giving you a more complete picture of how your episodes are performing.

When someone watches an episode on your website, that activity now shows up in your plays-over-time chart, episode table, and platform breakdowns. Jellypod also appears as its own entry in the Top Apps section alongside Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and the other platforms your audience uses.

The same rolling window filters you already use (1, 7, 30, and 90 days) apply across both audio and video plays, so everything stays consistent as you explore your data.

Previously, website video plays weren't reflected in the dashboard. If someone watched on your site instead of listening through a podcast app, you had no way to see that. Now your analytics cover both.

Episode Ready Notifications

You now receive an email notification when your new episode finishes publishing and is live and playable.

Additionally, you’ll also receive an email for scheduled emails, confirming schedule creation and an additional email when your new podcast goes live.

The email includes quick actions for viewing the published episode, creating a social clip, and sharing on social media.

Previously, you had to keep checking back in Jellypod to see if your episode was ready. Now you can close the tab and get on with other work, knowing you will be notified the moment your episode is live and ready to share.

Email Preference Center

You can now choose exactly which emails you receive from Jellypod instead of unsubscribing from everything at once.

The new notification preference center lets you toggle individual email categories—product updates, tips, and more—so you stay in the loop on what matters to you and skip the rest.

You can view your email notification settings here: https://studio.jellypod.com/settings/notifications

You'll also find a link to manage your preferences at the bottom of any Jellypod email.

Shared Episode Visibility Toggle

You can now control whether a shared episode link is public or private.

When you open the share dialog on a draft or scheduled episode, you’ll see a new Link Visibility dropdown. The first time you share an episode, it defaults to public. Your link is live and shareable immediately.

If you’d rather keep it under wraps, switch to private and the social sharing buttons and copy-link input disable themselves. No one can grab a working link until you’re ready.

Previously, any draft episode link was accessible to anyone who had the URL. That made it tricky to share work-in-progress episodes with collaborators without risking premature public access. Now you decide exactly when an episode link goes live and you can revoke access just as easily by flipping it back to private.

Playback Speed Control

You can now adjust playback speed when reviewing episodes in the editor.

A new speed control now appears in the timeline toolbar to the left of the play button. Click it to choose from speeds ranging from 0.5x to 2x. Your selection saves automatically and persists when you refresh the page or come back later.

Faster speeds are useful for quickly scanning through an episode to check pacing or find a specific section. Slower speeds help when you need to catch fine details or review complex passages. The audio pitch may shift at non-standard speeds, which is expected behavior.

Now you can speed through content at up to 2x, cutting your review time significantly without leaving the editing interface.
