Product Updates

Stay up to date with the latest features, improvements, and updates to Jellypod.

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://www.jellypod.com/studio/settings/notifications

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

Image Styles

You can now create and apply image styles to keep your generated images visually consistent.

Image styles are reusable presets that combine text directions like "dramatic lighting, cinematic composition" with an optional brand color palette. When you generate an image, pick a style from the dropdown and it steers the output toward that look. There are nine built-in styles to start with, or you can create your own under the Images tab in the side panel.

Creating a custom style is straightforward. You can define it manually by writing your own instructions and choosing colors, or you can upload a reference image or paste a website URL and let the system extract the visual direction and dominant colors automatically. Once saved, your style shows up alongside the defaults whenever you generate images.

Before this, every image generation started from scratch with no way to carry a visual identity across outputs. If you wanted a consistent look you had to manually describe it in every prompt. Now you set it once as a style and reuse it wherever you need it.

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

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.

AI Image Generation

AI Image Generation

You can now generate images from text prompts directly in Jellypod.

Describe what you want, choose an aspect ratio (square, portrait, or landscape), and select how many variations to generate (between 1 to 4 per generation). Your images appear in a gallery where you can view them, download them, regenerate with tweaks, or delete ones you do not need.

Image generation use credits per image, so generating four variations costs four x {image_credit} credits. The gallery supports search by prompt text and shows processing status while images are being created.

Previously, you could only generate cover art for podcasts. Now you have a dedicated space to create any image you need, whether for social media posts, episode thumbnails, or other visual content. Your generated images live in one searchable library.

Host Personality

You can now fine tune how your host sounds and communicates by uploading example source materials. This makes it easier to align the host’s personality, tone, and style with your expectations.

When creating a new host or editing an existing one, you will find a Reference Materials page inside the host settings. This is where you can upload examples of how the host should write or speak. These materials help shape everything from word choice to overall voice.

You can upload a wide range of examples, including blog posts, essays, podcast transcripts, video scripts, or any other content that reflects the communication style you want. The more representative the materials are, the better the host can match that style.

Updating reference materials is simple. Just open the host editor, navigate through the settings, and add or replace source files on the Reference Materials page. Changes can be made at any time, so your host can evolve as your needs change.

By providing real examples, you give the system a clearer understanding of how your host should sound, making interactions feel more natural, consistent, and on brand.

Referral Program

Referral Program

You can now earn credits by inviting friends to Jellypod.

Open the new referral dialog in the bottom right of Jellypod’s sidebar (near your account settings) to get your unique referral link. When someone signs up using your link, both of you receive bonus credits. No purchase necessary. The referral bonus credits are added automatically to your account once the referral is confirmed.

There is no limit to how many people you can refer. Each successful referral earns credits for both parties, so the more people you invite, the more you earn.

AI Document Writer

AI Document Writer

You can now write long-form documents with AI assistance directly in Jellypod.

The new document writer gives you a rich text editor with an AI chat panel alongside it. Upload sources and Jellypod will use them as grounding material when writing. You can also create custom writing styles that define how you want Jellypod to write, complete with their own reference sources.

Jellypod writes with taste, starting by interviewing you about what you want to create, then writes content based on your sources and style preferences. It can search the web for additional context, and you can edit the output directly in the editor or ask our AI to revise specific sections.

This extends Jellypod beyond audio into written content creation. Whether you need blog posts, essays, or other long-form material, you can now produce it using the same sources and workflows you already use for podcasts.

Podcast Clip Generator

You don’t need a Jellypod generated podcast to create great social clips anymore.

We’re expanding the Jellypod Podcast Clip Generator to work with any audio file, making it easy to turn existing podcasts, interviews, or audio recordings into scroll stopping social clips.

Upload up to one hour of audio and let Jellypod automatically find the most engaging moments. In just a few clicks, you can generate polished video clips optimized for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and more.

How This Is Different from AI Podcast Clips

Jellypod already helps you create clips from podcasts generated inside Jellypod.
This update goes further.

The Podcast Clip Generator now works with external audio, which means:

  • Upload audio recorded anywhere
  • No Jellypod generated podcast required
  • Perfect for existing shows, back catalogs, and guest interviews

If you have audio, Jellypod can now turn it into clips.

What You Can Do

With the Podcast Clip Generator, you can:

  • Upload MP3, WAV, or M4A audio files
  • Automatically extract highlight worthy moments
  • Render clips up to 5 minutes long
  • Choose square, portrait, or landscape formats
  • Apply social ready video templates
  • Download clips instantly, ready to post

No manual editing, switching tools, or wasted time. Try it out here.

Rich Text Descriptions

Rich Text Descriptions

You can now format your podcast's descriptions with rich-text, giving you the ability to add links, bolded or italicized text, and even bullet lists to your podcasts.

Rich text descriptions are now possible both on individual episodes and the overall podcast series.

What is Rich Text?

Unlike plain-text, rich text includes formatting elements such as bold, italics, and other visual styling options. This allows documents to have enhanced visual presentation and structure beyond the basic characters found in unformatted text files.

With rich text editing in your podcast or episode descriptions, you can enhance your content in several ways:

  • Bold text helps emphasize key points, guest names, or important topics
  • Italic text is perfect for book titles, quotes, or subtle emphasis
  • Links allow you to direct listeners to resources, websites, social media profiles, or relevant articles mentioned in the episode
  • Bullet and numbered lists organize talking points, timestamps, key takeaways, or resources in an easy-to-scan format

Podcast platforms, such as Spotify and Apple Podcasts, will correctly render your rich text descriptions, enabling you to link your content to other sites or give it a unique touch.
