The podcast player
with a memory.
You listen. Steadcast remembers. Transcription, summaries, and memories — so when you need it later, it's there.
You listen. Steadcast remembers. Transcription, summaries, and memories — so when you need it later, it's there.
You listen to learn — not just to pass the time. Steadcast was designed for that.
Every episode you queue gets transcribed on your Mac using the built-in Speech framework. Apple Intelligence generates summaries that capture the key ideas. Every word becomes searchable.
Intelligent silence trimming cuts the dead air so you hear more in less time. A live counter shows exactly how much time you've saved.
One keystroke saves a memory with transcript context. Find any moment later by searching your notes, highlights, and AI summaries.
The floating mini player and menu bar give you full control without switching windows. Skip, scrub, adjust speed, manage your queue — all while staying in whatever app you're working in.
Stays on top of every window. Play, pause, skip, scrub, and adjust speed without leaving your workflow.
Your Up Next queue lives in the menu bar. Reorder, remove, or jump to any episode from anywhere on your Mac.
Combine global hotkeys with the mini player for a zero-friction listening setup. Save a memory, skip a chapter, change speed — all without reaching for the mouse.
Global hotkeys work system-wide — control playback from any app, without touching the trackpad.
Native macOS. No Electron. No subscriptions. Just a podcast player built the way software should be.
