Create podcast artifacts
Create a podcast in Glean Assistant to turn information from across your organization into a playable audio artifact. Glean researches your request, writes a script optimized for listening, and returns the audio with a paired transcript.
Podcast artifacts are available only for organizations using Glean Key. Customer Key support isn't available. The feature is off by default while it's under managed rollout, so ask your admin if you don't see it.
Create a podcast
In Glean, ask for a podcast and describe what you want to learn. Include the topic, audience, and approximate length to guide the result.
For example:
Create a 5-minute podcast for a new team member explaining your organization's product priorities. Use the latest project updates and cover the main decisions and open questions.
Glean researches the relevant information it can access, creates a script designed for listening, and generates the audio artifact in the conversation.
Listen to and review the artifact
The audio artifact includes a player and a transcript. You can:
- Play or pause the audio.
- Seek to a different point in the recording.
- Change the playback speed.
- Read the transcript while you listen.
If audio generation fails, click Retry audio.
Refine and share a podcast
Continue the conversation to refine the podcast. You can ask Glean to:
- Focus on a different aspect of the topic.
- Refresh the sources behind the script.
- Change the length or level of detail.
Glean saves each round of changes as a new version of the artifact. From the three-dot menu on the player, click Share to give teammates access or Download to save as an MP3. Podcasts you create stay in the Audio section of your Library.
Get better results
- Name the audience. Tell Glean whether the podcast is for an executive, a new employee, a customer meeting, or someone else.
- Set the scope. Point Glean at the documents, projects, teams, or date range it should draw on.
- Describe the format. A briefing, an onboarding walkthrough, and a project update each produce a different script.
- Set a length. A target duration tells Glean how much detail to include.
Limitations
- Real-time voice is a separate feature and doesn't produce audio artifacts.
- Generating podcasts count toward usage limits. Both script and audio synthesis work are billable. When the usage limit is reached, you can't generate new podcasts until the limit resets at the start of the next calendar month.
