That PDF you'll never read?
Listen to it on your commute.

Research papers, industry reports, documentation, meeting notes — email any PDF to your PodBright address and it becomes a podcast episode waiting in your app.

How PDF-to-podcast works

01

Email the PDF

Attach any PDF to an email and send it to your private PodBright address. Works from any email client — Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail.

02

AI reads and rewrites it

PodBright extracts the text, removes formatting noise, and rewrites it for natural listening — not robotic text-to-speech.

03

Listen in your podcast app

A new episode appears in Apple Podcasts, Overcast, or Pocket Casts within minutes. Pick up where you left off, adjust speed — it's just a podcast.

What kind of PDFs?

If you can email it, PodBright can turn it into a podcast.

Research papers & academic articles
Industry reports & whitepapers
Long-form guides & documentation
Meeting notes & internal docs
Annual reports & SEC filings
Slide decks converted to PDF

AI adapts dense content to your ears

PDFs are often dense and complex. PodBright's AI restructures them for audio — not just reads them out.

Full text or AI summary

Get the complete PDF read aloud, or an AI-condensed summary of the key findings and takeaways.

Control the length

60-page report → 10-minute episode. AI extracts what matters and trims the rest.

Technical depth

Keep all the domain terminology and go deep on concepts, or simplify for a high-level overview.
