Welcome
Let's get you set up in 5 minutes
Quick Podcast Studio uses two AI services to write scripts and generate professional voices. Both are free to start — you just need to grab your API keys.

What is an API key?

Think of it like a password that connects this app to an AI service. You create a free account on each service, copy your key, and paste it here. Takes about 2 minutes per service.

💰 What does it cost to run?

Both services have free tiers. A typical 6-minute podcast episode costs about $0.10–$0.50 in total API credits. That's it.
