# Podstow **Your personal listen-later podcast.** Podstow turns the things you mean to read into a private podcast you can actually listen to. Connect it to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP-aware assistant and it can send web articles — or text the assistant writes itself (summaries, deep-research reports, digests) — straight into your personal podcast feed. Podstow scrapes the page (or ingests the text), runs it through natural text-to-speech, and publishes an episode to a private RSS feed you subscribe to in Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Pocket Casts, or any podcast app. ## Tools - **submit_url** — send a URL; Podstow scrapes it and publishes a narrated episode. - **submit_text** — send AI-written text (a summary, report, or digest); it's published as an episode, titled `[AI] …`. - **list_episodes** — browse your most recent episodes. - **get_episode_transcript** — pull the transcript for an episode. - **get_account** — tier, article usage, voice preferences, and feed URL. - **show_subscribe_instructions** — your feed URL plus per-app subscribe links and a QR code. ## How it works 1. Your assistant calls `submit_url` or `submit_text`. 2. Podstow scrapes or ingests the content, synthesises audio, and adds an episode. 3. It lands in your private RSS feed — listen anywhere, in the podcast app you already use. ## Connecting Add the remote server and authorise with your Podstow account: - **Endpoint:** `https://mcp.podstow.app/` (streamable HTTP) - **Auth:** OAuth 2.1 — grant read-only (`episodes:read`) or read-write (`episodes:create`); revocable per app from your account page.
