About Podcurator
We're podcast listeners who got tired of endless scrolling. So we built the AI-powered discovery tool we always wanted.
The Problem We Solve
Podcasts have exploded. With over 5 million shows and 70 million episodes available, finding the right content for your interests, commute length, or learning goals feels impossible.
Traditional podcast apps focus on show-level discovery: "Here are popular podcasts about business." But you don't want a whole show—you want specific episodes that answer your questions, feature particular guests, or explore niche topics. That's where episode-level discovery changes everything.
Our Approach: AI-Powered Episode Discovery
Podcurator uses advanced AI to understand your natural language queries and surface exactly the right episodes—not just popular shows. Tell us what you want to learn about, and we'll curate a personalized "playlist" of episodes that match.
What Makes Us Different
- •Episode-level discovery: We find specific episodes, not just shows
- •Natural language search: Ask questions like you would a friend
- •Transparent reasoning: We explain why each episode matches your query
- •Always improving: We learn and get better with every search
Meet the Founder
Philippe Nadon
Founder & Developer
Philippe is a software engineer and avid podcast listener who built Podcurator to solve his own frustration with podcast discovery. After years of manually curating episode lists for friends and spending hours scrolling through generic recommendations, he decided to build an AI-powered tool that actually understands what listeners are looking for.
His background spans full-stack development, AI/ML systems, and NLP — combining these skills to create episode-level discovery that goes beyond keyword matching to understand listener intent.
Our Mission
We believe podcast discovery should be as intelligent as the content itself. Instead of endless scrolling through generic recommendations, listeners deserve:
- Precise answers to specific questions
- Transparency in how recommendations are made
- Discovery of hidden gems from lesser-known shows
- Respect for their time and privacy
We're building Podcurator to be the most transparent, user-centric podcast discovery platform—where AI serves listeners, not algorithms.
Why Podcurator Saves You Time
We've designed Podcurator to deliver maximum value with minimum effort:
- Instant Results: Get curated episodes and shows in 30-45 seconds instead of spending 30+ minutes browsing manually
- Transparent Reasoning: See exactly why each recommendation matches your needs—no mysterious algorithms, just clear explanations
- Context-Aware Matching: Our AI understands intent and context, delivering relevant results even for complex or niche queries
- Privacy-First: We never sell your data. Your listening preferences stay private while helping us improve recommendations anonymously
