Yourcast 2.0 Puts AI Podcast Intelligence in Telegram

Yourcast’s strongest idea is not adding an LLM to podcasts—it is making podcast discovery and navigation happen inside a chat people already use.

• –Timestamped summaries reduce the friction of deciding whether an episode deserves an hour.
• –Episode Q&A makes long-form audio searchable and interactive, though answer quality will depend heavily on transcription and grounding.
• –Self-repairing feeds, OPML migration, resumable downloads, and 2 GB support address practical switching costs that most AI podcast tools ignore.
• –Telegram-native payments and a free weekly tier give the project a plausible monetization path without requiring another app or account.
• –GPLv3 licensing makes the bot interesting to developers, although its public GitHub repository remains relatively early-stage.
