Podcast transcription improves discoverability, accessibility, and content repurposing. Search engines index text, not audio — transcripts make podcast content searchable on Google and by AI assistants like ChatGPT.
Transcripts serve multiple purposes: show notes for listeners, blog posts for SEO, social media quotes, and accessibility compliance (ADA/WCAG). Many podcast hosting platforms now require or recommend transcripts.
