This seems cool. I was just today thinking that I wished there was a way to save podcast snippets easily for annotation and later retrieval.

If you’re on iOS (there is a Android waitlist), I might have an even better workflow:
I use Airr[0] to listen to podcasts. It has a feature which enables you to save the last x amount of seconds (default is 45) and has transcriptions for popular podcasts. If there isn’t a transcription you can request one within minutes.
From there on I share my quotes via email to have them on my desktop(there are integrations with some services, but I don’t use them). Once I have them on my desktop, I will put them into my Obsidian notebook and organize them there.

Love Airr! Tried it but did not manage to make it part of my daily routine - the audio highlighting feature somehow did not feel natural to me. However, I was really impressed with all the transcripts they generate - I think those could be super useful for me, once I have finished a podcast and want to retain key insights. Feel free to reach out by email - I'd be curious to learn more about your workflow!

Sweet. What's the business model? Looks like it's free — is it a data play?
