You can craft a strong podcast description by focusing on what your audience needs first. Open with a hook—something short that addresses, “Why should I listen?” Then include details about each episode and mention relevant timestamps. Wrap up with any resources and clear calls to action for potential listeners.

Yes, Descript’s AI assistant works like a podcast bio generator and can also handle episode scripts. To get your bio, try the Ask AI Anything feature with the prompt: “Write a bio for my podcast.” Once you get a response, follow up with more details about your show so it can refine the final version.
Descript’s AI-powered podcast description generator pulls details directly from your transcript and audio. It automatically produces a clear, organized description and adds timestamps to highlight key moments without missing any important points.
If the generated podcast episode description doesn’t fit your needs, simply let AI know what changes you’d prefer. It will revise the description based on your feedback. You can also request a brand-new draft by offering more specific instructions tailored to your audience.
