Transcripts
Pinepods supports Transcripts as defined by the PodcastIndex Namespace. Any podcast episode that you play that supports this field will automatically show links to the episode transcript in the episode view as seen below:

AI-generated transcripts​
Even when a podcast doesn't publish its own transcript, Pinepods can generate one with AI using the optional AI container — complete with a timecoded, clickable view. It's also the foundation for AI ad detection.
See AI Transcription for how to set it up and use it.
