The brief
Three to five topic cards. Each with a hook, structured talking points, a contrarian audience question, and live source links. No more 12 open tabs and a half-finished doc.
Six months ago every indie hacker was building a GPT wrapper. Now the survivors are doing something different - and it's not what Twitter says.
How it works
Tell PrepCast your niche, audience, voice, and recent episodes. Takes 4 minutes.
Live data from Reddit, X, Google Trends, and news - filtered through your show's lens.
A ready-to-record document lands in your dashboard each week. Print, export, or open on your phone.
What you get
Not a generic AI assistant. PrepCast is opinionated about what makes a podcast brief actually useful.
Live signal from Reddit, X, Google Trends, and the long tail of niche newsletters. Re-ranked weekly.
Briefs are filtered through your audience, voice, and recent episodes - not a generic feed.
3-5 topic cards with hooks, structured bullets, and a contrarian question. Built for skim-reading at the mic.
Every claim links back to a source with title and URL. Cite confidently on air.
I hosted a weekly show for two years. Every Tuesday I lost an evening juggling ChatGPT, Perplexity and 14 browser tabs trying to find one good angle. PrepCast is the tool I wished existed - opinionated, show-aware, and ruthless about what doesn't make the brief.
