Product Updates

Sometimes you want to go fast. Turbo Mode lets you skip outline approval and jump straight to podcast episode generation.

When enabled, Jellypod makes reasonable assumptions based on your sources, builds the outline behind the scenes, and starts generating your podcast episode immediately. No clarification questions, no back-and-forth, and no required approvals.

Off by default, Turbo Mode can be enabled by clicking on the settings button (gear) when creating a new episode. Turn it on when speed matters, turn it off when you want more control.

Every source you upload to Jellypod now lives in a single place - the Source Library.

The Source Library gives you a searchable, central view of every file, URL, and file source you’ve ever used to create something in Jellypod. It could be a Youtube video, website, or pdf; they’re all saved in your source library ready for reuse.

When you're creating something new, you can now "Pick from Source Library" to pull in sources you've already uploaded; no need to re-upload or hunt through old documents on your desktop.

You can also manage your sources directly from the library. See processing status at a glance, download originals, or clean up sources you no longer need. It's a small change that makes working with recurring research, interviews, and reference material feel effortless.

Your AI hosts can now laugh, sigh, whisper, pause, and react.

Now, with audio prompting, you can direct how each line in your script is spoken or add additional, non-verbal sound effects and reactions. Type / inside any speak block in the script editor to open a dropdown of preset cues, or type something custom.

Audio tags are organized into three main categories:

1. Reactions like [laughs], [sighs], and [gasps]
2. Emotions like [excited], [nervous], and [sarcastic]
3. Delivery cues like [whispers], [pauses], and [dramatic].

For example, writing "I can't believe it [gasps] that's incredible! [excited]" will produce a line with a sharp intake of breath followed by an energetic, upbeat delivery. Each tag appears in inline in your script so you can see exactly how a line will play before you generate.

Generated scripts will now also occasionally include audio tags to improve the naturalness of your podcasts and conversations.

Audio prompting only affects what your listeners hear, keeping your captions, transcripts, and visual assets clean.

After you finish setting up third-party distribution, you can now add links to your podcast on those streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, Amazon Music, and Overcast.

Head to your podcast dashboard, connect your platform URLs, and they will automatically appear in the "Listen" section of your Jellypod-hosted podcast website.

Your listeners no longer have to hunt for your show on their preferred app. Every connected platform shows up as a clear, clickable badge on your podcast site, making it effortless for your audience to subscribe wherever they already listen.

Jellypod can now create written documents alongside your podcasts and images.

Describe what you want to write in the chat, attach your sources for context, and the docs agent will draft it in a live editor right next to the conversation. Edit inline or keep chatting to refine the output.

Jellypod actually writes well - asking you clarifying questions, searching the internet, and iteratively improves on its output so you’re not generating slop.

Use it for show notes, blog posts, research summaries, or any long-form content that benefits from your existing source material. When you're done, export or download as Markdown or plain-text.

Analytics now live inside each podcast directly.

Open any podcast and you'll see an Analytics tab alongside Episodes and Hosts, putting your stats right where you manage your show instead of buried in a separate section of the app.

Analytics previously were located in the App Sidebar but now are located independently under each podcast.

The new analytics dashboard includes downloads over time, top countries with a monthly selector, top listening apps, devices, browsers, and per-episode download counts.

No more guessing how long your episode will be.

When creating a new episode, you can now choose from short, medium, or long presets that set a target duration for your script. The agent calibrates chapter count and word budget so the final audio lands where you want it.

Short episodes will be around ~5-7 minutes, medium (the default) will be around 8-12 minutes, and long will approach 20 minutes. You can set the duration by clicking on the Settings Gear icon when creating a new episode.

You can now transfer an episode from one podcast to another.

Sometimes you start an episode in one podcast series and realize it belongs somewhere else. Maybe you drafted it under the default "My First Podcast" and need to move it to your main show, or you're reorganizing your content across multiple podcasts. Now you can transfer episodes without recreating anything from scratch.

To transfer an episode to a new podcast, go to its current podcast, click on the episode menu (⋯), select "Transfer Episode," and choose the destination podcast. Your episode moves instantly with all its content, sources, and settings intact.

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.

You can now generate podcast episodes without watching your credit balance.

Starting today, Jellypod credits are only consumed when you publish or download your podcast episode. Generating drafts or regenerating sections no longer consume credits, enabling you to focus on creating the perfect piece of content rather than worrying about how much it will cost.

Tweak your scripts, test different voices, and iterate as much as you like. When you’re happy with the final result, publish or download your episode and we’ll calculate credit usage purely on the final output length.

Your existing credit balance carries over unchanged, so you can start experimenting right away.
