About this extension
Turn anything you read into a podcast.
PaperPod converts the webpage, PDF, image, or text in front of you into a natural, two-host audio conversation that explains the key points — so you can absorb dense material while commuting, walking, or resting your eyes.
The problem it solves:
Research papers, reports, and long articles pile up faster than you can read them. PaperPod lets you listen to them instead — as an engaging back-and-forth discussion, not a robotic text-to-speech readout — and ask questions when something isn't clear.
What it does:
Right-click a page (or open the popup to upload a PDF/image/text) and PaperPod generates a podcast episode where two AI hosts discuss and explain the content. Listen in your browser, download the audio, or open the built-in Q&A to ask follow-up questions about what you just heard.
How to use:
1. Click the PaperPod icon in your toolbar to open the app
2. Upload a PDF, image, or paste text
3. Wait a few moments while AI generates the podcast
4. Listen, download, or ask follow-up questions in the built-in Q&A chat panel
Right-click anywhere on the web:
• Right-click any image → "Upload image to PaperPod"
• Highlight text, right-click → "Create podcast from selected text"
• Right-click a file link → "Upload file to PaperPod"
• Right-click on any page → "Create podcast from this page" to extract page text
What makes it different:
• Two-host conversation, not flat text-to-speech — the content is explained, discussed, and made engaging
• Send content in one right-click from any page — no copy-pasting into a separate app
• Built-in Q&A: ask follow-up questions about the document after listening
• No signup or login required — just upload and go
• Supports PDFs, images (with OCR), pasted text, and direct file links
Use cases:
• Students listening to research papers while commuting
• Professionals reviewing reports during travel
• Researchers converting long articles into digestible audio
• Anyone who prefers audio over reading
