Podverse

Podverse is an open source podcast app that implements the Podcasting 2.0 feature set rather than treating it as optional.

Why it matters

A namespace tag is theoretical until an app renders it. Podverse is one of the clients that makes Chapters, Transcripts and Soundbites visible to listeners, which is what moves a tag from written-down to real. It is also self-hostable, so the app is not a single company's decision.

How it works

The project is a TypeScript monorepo covering the API, the web app and the mobile clients, shipping on iOS, Android, F-Droid and web. Value 4 Value payments are built in, so listeners can pay creators from the same place they listen. The whole stack can be run locally — see Self-hosting.

From chapter titles, show notes, the PC 2.0 Timeline and the clip notes. Where those say nothing, from the episode transcript — which reaches further but only records that a word was said. 214 of 266 episodes have curated notes; 177 moments come from transcripts.
