This sounds like an exciting pivot in the podcasting world! 🙌 I love the idea of personalized clip-based playlists; it really fits our fast-paced lives. The AI curation is a game changer and perfectly addresses how we consume content now. Can’t wait to give Overlap a try! Kudos to the Overlap team and @buzz_rubenstein for pushing this innovation forward. Looking forward to how this can reshape the podcast experience!
As an engineer working on Overlap, I'm really excited about what we're building. I've always struggled with long-form podcasts - my attention span just isn't suited for hour-long episodes. That's actually what inspired me to work on this project.
We're targeting people like me who prefer bite-sized content but still want to stay informed and entertained. Our AI does the heavy lifting of finding those golden moments in podcasts, so you don't have to wade through hours of content.
Being on the technical side, I'm particularly proud of how we've implemented the AI curation. It's been a fascinating challenge to develop algorithms that can understand context, relevance, and user preferences across such a wide range of topics.
I'd love to hear from other engineers or podcast fans about what features you'd find most useful in an app like this.
We're always looking to improve and innovate!
Been great to work with everyone on this.
@miles_low So grateful to have you on this journey w us! (even if you're not amazing at ping pong)

Overlap sounds like great solution for podcast lovers. I love the idea of curated clips replacing full episodes; it makes consuming content so much easier.Quick question: How does the AI determine which clips are featured, and can users their favorite moments?
@new_user__330202361305144c07d45c0 It's a really good question. During onboarding, you'd select your interests, import podcasts you follow (if any) and then go through a Tinder-esque module where you swipe left or right on a number of clips. Your interactions with those clips are super helpful in determining which clips would make their way onto your feed.
