Product Updates

You can now create and apply image styles to keep your generated images visually consistent.

Image styles are reusable presets that combine text directions like "dramatic lighting, cinematic composition" with an optional brand color palette. When you generate an image, pick a style from the dropdown and it steers the output toward that look. There are nine built-in styles to start with, or you can create your own under the Images tab in the side panel.

Creating a custom style is straightforward. You can define it manually by writing your own instructions and choosing colors, or you can upload a reference image or paste a website URL and let the system extract the visual direction and dominant colors automatically. Once saved, your style shows up alongside the defaults whenever you generate images.

Before this, every image generation started from scratch with no way to carry a visual identity across outputs. If you wanted a consistent look you had to manually describe it in every prompt. Now you set it once as a style and reuse it wherever you need it.

You can now control whether a shared episode link is public or private.

When you open the share dialog on a draft or scheduled episode, you’ll see a new Link Visibility dropdown. The first time you share an episode, it defaults to public. Your link is live and shareable immediately.

If you’d rather keep it under wraps, switch to private and the social sharing buttons and copy-link input disable themselves. No one can grab a working link until you’re ready.

Previously, any draft episode link was accessible to anyone who had the URL. That made it tricky to share work-in-progress episodes with collaborators without risking premature public access. Now you decide exactly when an episode link goes live and you can revoke access just as easily by flipping it back to private.

You can now fine tune how your host sounds and communicates by uploading example source materials. This makes it easier to align the host’s personality, tone, and style with your expectations.

When creating a new host or editing an existing one, you will find a Reference Materials page inside the host settings. This is where you can upload examples of how the host should write or speak. These materials help shape everything from word choice to overall voice.

You can upload a wide range of examples, including blog posts, essays, podcast transcripts, video scripts, or any other content that reflects the communication style you want. The more representative the materials are, the better the host can match that style.

Updating reference materials is simple. Just open the host editor, navigate through the settings, and add or replace source files on the Reference Materials page. Changes can be made at any time, so your host can evolve as your needs change.

By providing real examples, you give the system a clearer understanding of how your host should sound, making interactions feel more natural, consistent, and on brand.

You don’t need a Jellypod generated podcast to create great social clips anymore.

We’re expanding the Jellypod Podcast Clip Generator to work with any audio file, making it easy to turn existing podcasts, interviews, or audio recordings into scroll stopping social clips.

Upload up to one hour of audio and let Jellypod automatically find the most engaging moments. In just a few clicks, you can generate polished video clips optimized for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and more.

How This Is Different from AI Podcast Clips

Jellypod already helps you create clips from podcasts generated inside Jellypod.
This update goes further.

The Podcast Clip Generator now works with external audio, which means:

• Upload audio recorded anywhere
• No Jellypod generated podcast required
• Perfect for existing shows, back catalogs, and guest interviews

If you have audio, Jellypod can now turn it into clips.

What You Can Do

With the Podcast Clip Generator, you can:

• Upload MP3, WAV, or M4A audio files
• Automatically extract highlight worthy moments
• Render clips up to 5 minutes long
• Choose square, portrait, or landscape formats
• Apply social ready video templates
• Download clips instantly, ready to post

No manual editing, switching tools, or wasted time. Try it out here.

You can now format your podcast's descriptions with rich-text, giving you the ability to add links, bolded or italicized text, and even bullet lists to your podcasts.

Rich text descriptions are now possible both on individual episodes and the overall podcast series.

What is Rich Text?

Unlike plain-text, rich text includes formatting elements such as bold, italics, and other visual styling options. This allows documents to have enhanced visual presentation and structure beyond the basic characters found in unformatted text files.

With rich text editing in your podcast or episode descriptions, you can enhance your content in several ways:

• Bold text helps emphasize key points, guest names, or important topics
• Italic text is perfect for book titles, quotes, or subtle emphasis
• Links allow you to direct listeners to resources, websites, social media profiles, or relevant articles mentioned in the episode
• Bullet and numbered lists organize talking points, timestamps, key takeaways, or resources in an easy-to-scan format

Podcast platforms, such as Spotify and Apple Podcasts, will correctly render your rich text descriptions, enabling you to link your content to other sites or give it a unique touch.

Sources are the foundational context required to create engaging podcasts on Jellypod.

Beginning today, in addition to episode-level sources, you can now add sources at your podcast series level.

What are Sources?

When creating a podcast episode on Jellypod, most users will ground their new podcast in some external content such as a blog post, a PDF, or Powerpoint presentation. These sources are processed and used as context for your hosts to discuss in your podcast.

However, we've heard that there's often multiple episodes that use the same podcast source - such as a long-form article or brand guidelines - that every episode should be aware of.

With podcast level sources, this is now easily possible.

Podcast Level Sources

When creating or editing your podcast series, you're now provided with a step to upload sources to your podcast's knowledge base.

This optional step allows you to drag and drop files, add website links, or paste text that's associated with your podcast series and included in each new episode created in this podcast. This makes it easy to upload a global source file once at the podcast level rather than uploading the same source multiple times for each episode that needs it.

When you create an episode, that episode will use both the podcast-level source and episode-level sources, with episode sources taking priority over global sources.

Try it out today by editing any existing podcast or by creating a new podcast.

Other Improvements

We've also made some minor quality of life improvements regarding sources processing, improving the reliability of content ingestion and significantly reducing sources erroring out.

We've also improved adding sources via the episode outline step, with a new ability to drag and drop files directly in this area.

On today's Weekly Wednesday, we're releasing Magic Video as a new way to visualize your podcast audio. In addition to waveforms and karaoke-style captions, you can now generate visual assets that intelligently accompany your audio.

From PowerPoint-style slides to AI-generated images, Magic Video helps create a more engaging podcast for listeners in front of a screen.

To learn more, join our Weekly Wednesday livestream here:

How To Get Started

1. Create your Podcast: Generate your AI podcast as usual from your sources. Generate your audio like you're used to!
2. Select Magic Video: In the template dropdown, select Magic Video and then click on "Generate Assets".
3. Preview and export: Once your assets are generated, review your video and make any tweaks before publishing!

Why Video Podcasts?

Podcast consumption is evolving. Many listeners watch podcasts on YouTube, scrolling through clips on TikTok, and engaging with video content on LinkedIn. Magic Video makes it easy to meet your audience wherever they are without the hours of editing traditionally required.

Jellypod now analyzes your podcast conversation and generates relevant, high-quality visuals that match what's being discussed. No prompts needed. It just understands your content.

As always, podcasts remain audio-first. Your content should stand on its own through listening alone. Video is the layer that elevates an already great episode, providing an enhanced experience for audiences who want to watch, not just listen.

Magic Video is currently in Beta and will see many improvements over the coming weeks.

Available Styles

• Audiogram & Captions: Animated waveforms with karaoke-style word highlighting that follows along as words are spoken
• AI Generated Images: Contextual visuals created automatically from your content in real-time
• Presentation Slides: Auto-generated PowerPoint-style slides that extract key points and sync to your narration
• Whiteboard: Hand-drawn sketch animations that appear as you speak (Coming Soon)

This Weekly Wednesday, we're thrilled to announce a major improvement of your podcast website.

For brands looking to grow with podcasts, a well designed website is critical. The new design helps display your show in the best possible way, better emphasizing your brand and making it easier than ever for your audience to enjoy your content.

For Day Five of Launch week, we're releasing an expanded voice library optimized for Horizon, our latest podcast voice model. We understand how important the voice is to making a podcast that sounds great.

We've also expanded our library to include more voices with international accents, helping our users in non-English speaking countries, create podcasts that sound more real. All our voices, as always, support all of our languages, but some may be optimized to sound better in certain languages.
