Questions, answered

What chapter formats from show notes can I paste?
Lines like "(00:00) Intro", "[12:40] Listener questions", "12:40 - Listener questions" or "1:02:15 Wrap-up" all work, with the time at the start or end of the line. Lines without a time, such as links and sponsor credits, are ignored.
Does it read the chapters already embedded in the file?
No. Chapter markers inside the file, including M4B audiobook chapters, are not read yet. Paste the chapter times from the show notes, or tap "Add track" at each chapter while the episode plays.
Can I use this to cut clips for social posts?
You can cut an episode into sections and download any one of them on its own, and each can fade in and out by up to 5 seconds when you choose MP3, AAC, Opus, FLAC or WAV as the output. It cuts audio only; it does not make video or captions.
Will the chapters sound the same as the episode?
Yes. With "Keep original" an MP3 episode is cut without re-encoding and an M4A stays AAC, so every chapter has exactly the quality of the source.
Is it free?
Yes, with no account and no limit on the number of chapters. One episode file can be up to 450 MB, and it is deleted from our server once your downloads are ready.
