Jellypod vs. JoggAI: Comparing GenAI Podcast Tools

If you’ve been exploring AI podcast tools beyond NotebookLM (we wrote a comparison of NotebookLM here), you’ve probably thought about JoggAI or Jellypod.

While both can generate podcast content with AI voices, JoggAI is primarily an AI avatar video platform that can export audio. On the other hand, Jellypod is fully-fledged AI podcast studio built to take you from an idea to a podcast on Spotify/Apple/YouTube fast.

So, if you're looking to create an AI podcast, Jellypod is the clear winner. It has realistic host customization, script editing, and distribution included, making it a no-brainer for someone trying to start podcasting. But JoggAI can be a great choice if you want a more generic media generation platform that supports a bunch of different models.

If you're interested in the full breakdown comparing Jellypod to JoggAl, read our full review below.

The Content Creation Process

JoggAI is solid if you already have the material that you want turned into video.

Paste a script, drop in a URL, or import a document to generate a clean presenter-led output. It can draft dialog too, but the mental model stays close to “input → video,” removing much of the creative process from the user. A lot of times the lack of easy creative control is a deal breaker.

Jellypod helps earlier in the process.

With Jellypod, you can add over 100 different source types such as URLs, PDFs, YouTube links, and more, as a basis for your new podcast. It uses that context to generate a fully customizable script between the AI hosts you've designed.

It's an intuitive process that gives you both a powerful workflow for creating podcasts, but also the creative control that guarantees your content meets your quality bar.

Timeline vs. Text-based Editing

JoggAI organizes creation around scenes and avatars.

You choose a presenter, feed text or a link, and the system produces a video. It’s efficient for visual-first content, but revisions often happen on a scene/timing layer. That’s okay if you’re thinking in shots and presenter reads, but less so if your workflow is "iterate to perfection".

Jellypod is script-first and beginner-friendly.

Your episode lives as a document. Edit words; the audio updates. No multitrack timeline to poke at, no waveforms to nudge. Most fixes, like tone, pacing, and clarity, are simple text edits. Jellypod is built around the idea that the source of truth is your podcast script, making it user-friendly and intuitive.

Host & Voice Customization

If you want realistic AI avatars, JoggAI shines.

Under the hood, JoggAI integrates with many of the largest foundation models and their pricing isn't bad. Although I personally don't like AI avatars and think they're gimmicky, some content does do better when there's “a face on screen”, even if it's an AI. With JoggAI, you can quickly test different presenters for different channels and keep outputs visually consistent.

Jellypod doesn't offer AI avatars (today), but instead focuses on designing realistic hosts who have rich backstories and personalities. These podcast hosts are more than just their voice, making creation more of a character building experience. And bonus points for the ability to clone your own voice or voices of your friends/coworkers.

Distributing Your Audio

JoggAI only focuses on the creation step. You download video or audio, then handle hosting, RSS, and platform submissions with your own stack. If you already have those pieces, that separation is fine–and sometimes preferred.

Jellypod bundles the “what now?” step.

Every podcast gets its own show website, an embeddable player, an RSS feed, and one-click publishing to Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube. It also generates audiograms and social clips for TikTok/LinkedIn/Instagram so promotion doesn’t become a side project. If your goal is to launch, grow, and keep a podcasting cadence without juggling tools, that integration is a key difference.

Bottom Line

Unless you want AI avatars, Jellypod is a clear winner. Features such as built-in distribution, analytics, and an intuitive text-based editing interface make it both beginner-friendly and powerful.

Both are good at what they do; but if you're looking to break into podcasting with AI, sign up for Jellypod here and get 1000 free credits.
