AI podcast generator: what Loudly ships today, and what it does not
If you came here for the two-host AI conversation format, the honest answer is that we have not shipped it yet, and we are not going to write about it as though we had. Below is what does work today, and where to look if that format is what you need this week.
Status verified against getloudly.app on 2026-09-02. This page will be updated when the format ships.
Why say this out loud
It is common in this category to describe roadmap features in the present tense. It works right up until someone pays and finds out, which is how refunds and one-star reviews happen - and neither is worth the extra signup to us.
We flag the podcast format as coming soon on our home page. Saying the same thing here costs us a little traffic and keeps the page worth trusting.

Coming soon
And if a two-host discussion is genuinely what you need
Then today the answer is NotebookLM, now presented as Gemini Notebook. Its Audio Overview feature turns your sources into what Google calls a Deep Dive discussion between two hosts, in one click, and it has a free tier.
It is worth understanding what that format is before assuming it is what you want. Two hosts talking about your document is a discussion of the material, filtered through what the model judged interesting. It is engaging and it is not the document. Many people who think they want a generated podcast actually want their reading read to them, which is the thing that does work in Loudly today.
A quick way to tell which you want
- You have not read the material and want an engaging way in: a two-host discussion suits that.
- You have already decided the material matters and simply have not got to it: narration is what you want.
- You need specific details, clauses or sections: narration, without question - a discussion will not reliably include them.
- You are revising material you have already met: a spoken summary with practice questions beats both.
Frequently asked questions
Can Loudly make a two-host podcast right now?
No. That format is marked coming soon on Loudly's own site. Full narration and spoken summaries work today.
When will it ship?
We have not announced a date. This page will be updated when we have one - we would rather leave it blank than invent a timeline.
What is the closest thing available today?
NotebookLM's Audio Overview produces a two-host Deep Dive discussion from your sources and has a free tier.
Is the audio Loudly makes today still podcast-like?
In how you use it, yes - a queue of episodes, playlists, speed control, background playback and resume. It is a single narrator rather than two hosts in conversation.
Will existing credits work with the podcast format later?
Credits are minutes of finished audio, so they are not tied to a single output type. Confirm terms at purchase.
