How to Repurpose Webinars to Podcasts

You ran a great webinar. Strong attendance, thoughtful questions, solid material. The replay lives on your site, but engagement drops fast.

That does not mean the content lost value. It means the format did.

With AI podcasting, a webinar is not just reused. It becomes the source material for a newly generated podcast episode. The end result is not a raw recording, but a structured, host-led podcast created from your webinar using AI.

This is where tools like Jellypod change the workflow entirely.

Why Webinars Are Ideal Inputs for AI Podcasts

Webinars already contain what AI needs to generate a podcast:

  • Clear subject matter and narrative direction
  • Expert commentary and explanations
  • Real audience questions that surface intent and confusion

Instead of publishing the webinar audio as-is, Jellypod uses the recording as input to generate a podcast episode that sounds intentional, concise, and designed for listening.

How an AI Podcast Is Generated From a Webinar

1. Use the Webinar Recording as the Source

Your webinar video or audio is uploaded directly into Jellypod as source material.

Jellypod ingests the full recording and analyzes the content: who is speaking, what topics are covered, where key transitions happen, and which sections are worth emphasizing.

The webinar is not the podcast. It is the raw input.

2. AI Generates a Podcast Episode From the Content

Instead of simply cleaning the audio, Jellypod generates a podcast episode using AI hosts.

Based on your configuration, Jellypod will:

  • Create a podcast-style intro that frames the topic
  • Generate natural host narration that guides the listener
  • Summarize, rephrase, and structure the webinar content for audio
  • Pull in relevant segments from the source recording where appropriate
  • Optionally isolate Q&A into separate segments or episodes

The result is a podcast that sounds like a podcast, not a webinar replay.

You are not publishing a recording. You are publishing a generated episode built from your content.

3. Customize the Podcast Format and Voice

Jellypod allows you to control how the podcast is generated.

You can define:

  • The podcast format (solo host, co-host, explainer style)
  • The tone and pacing
  • The AI host voice
  • How closely the episode follows the original webinar
  • Whether episodes are condensed summaries or deeper walkthroughs

This makes it possible to turn the same webinar into different types of episodes depending on audience or channel.

4. Generate Show Notes and Assets Automatically

Once the episode is generated, Jellypod automatically creates:

  • Episode titles and descriptions
  • Show notes and summaries
  • Structured outlines
  • Transcripts

These assets are ready for distribution, SEO, and repurposing without additional manual work.

5. Publish and Distribute as a Podcast

After generation and review, Jellypod handles publishing.

From one place, you can:

  • Generate an RSS feed
  • Publish to major podcast platforms
  • Share episode links or embed players

This turns a one-time webinar into an ongoing podcast content stream with minimal overhead.

Why This Works Better Than Traditional Repurposing

Traditional webinar-to-podcast workflows rely on editing. AI podcasting relies on generation.

The difference matters:

  • The podcast is shorter, clearer, and more intentional
  • Listeners are guided through the topic instead of dropped into a recording
  • Episodes feel consistent even when source webinars vary
  • Teams save hours of manual editing and scripting

You are not asking people to listen to a webinar. You are giving them a podcast episode built from it.

Best Practices When Using Webinars as AI Podcast Inputs

Choose substance over promotion
Educational or problem-solving webinars generate better podcast episodes than product demos.

Let AI restructure aggressively
Do not try to preserve the original webinar flow. Podcasts need tighter pacing.

Break one webinar into multiple episodes
A single webinar can generate several focused podcast episodes or a short series.

Getting Started

Pick one webinar with strong core content.
Upload it directly into Jellypod as your source.
Configure your podcast format and AI host.
Generate, review, and publish.

Your webinar stops being a static replay and becomes the foundation for an AI-generated podcast that keeps working long after the live event ends.
