spotify has introduced a new desktop app named studio, designed for generating personal podcasts. users can create podcasts by exploring topics and incorporating personal context from their emails and calendars. the app features an AI agent that can browse the web to fetch relevant information for podcast creation.
for indie developers and small studios, this tool offers a way to create customized audio content without coding skills. the generated podcasts are stored in the user's spotify library and are not publicly accessible. this could be useful for creating unique marketing content or personal updates.
the app is currently in a research preview and is available to select users aged 18 and older in over 20 markets. users should be aware that the AI may produce unreliable content, as it is still in early development.
consider testing the app for generating audio content related to your projects or updates. it could streamline your communication or marketing efforts through personalized audio briefings.
