How it works
How Reducer works.
A podcast built around an inbox. Fill it from anywhere, compile when you're ready.
The inbox model
Every show has an inbox. You add segments to it — short pieces of text, each with an optional label or source. The inbox keeps them until you've got enough for an episode.
That split is on purpose. You capture whenever; you publish when you mean to. Add ten segments across a day, then compile one episode. Or add one and publish right away. The inbox doesn't judge.
Segments
A segment is just text with a label. It can be a paragraph from a blog post, a summary your AI assistant produced, a news item you want to hear, or a note you jotted down. Segments are ordered by when they arrived.
You can also tag a segment with a source — the article's link,
the app that added it, whatever helps you place it later.
Episodes
When you compile an episode, Reducer takes everything in the inbox (or a subset you pick), turns it into audio, and clears those segments out. The episode is saved and added to your show's feed.
You can set a title and description for the episode, or let Reducer generate them from the segment content.
Voices
Reducer reads your segments aloud in a natural, lifelike voice. You choose a voice per show — the same one across every episode, so the show sounds consistent. Pro unlocks the full set of voices; free shows use a standard subset.
Your private feed
Each show gets a permanent private RSS URL. Subscribe to it once in Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Pocket Casts, or any podcast app. New episodes appear automatically. The URL is private — it includes a token — so only people you share it with can subscribe.
On a schedule
Put a show on a schedule and a fresh episode publishes on its own — a daily brief waiting for you each morning, with no manual step. Fill the inbox through the week, and the next compile picks up whatever's there.
