About

Building the tool
we always wished existed.

Audioask was born from a simple observation: podcast content is an incredibly rich source of knowledge, yet rarely easy to use.

Our story

Making podcasts a knowledge base more accessible.

Podcasts have become one of today's richest formats: interviews, analyses, firsthand accounts, debates. But this knowledge remains trapped in audio — hard to search, quote, or share.

Audioask unlocks that content. Transcription, translation, AI: podcasts become a real library, as searchable and reusable as text.

TIMELINE
2024 · Q1 Prototype — first Audioask transcription, on a 28-min episode.
2025 · Q2 Private beta — 50 users, 1,200 transcribed episodes.
2025 · Q4 Public launch — Free, Premium, Pro.
2026 → Shared library — +185M episodes available.
Our mission

Making audio knowledge as accessible and usable as text.

Our values

Four principles,
upheld every day.

01 · Made in Switzerland 🇨🇭

Swiss made, for real.

Audioask is developed and operated from Switzerland. Our standards of quality, privacy, and reliability are those you'd expect from a Swiss product.

02 · Knowledge

Giving access to more knowledge.

The knowledge produced every day in audio should benefit as many people as possible — not just those with 10 free hours a week. That's what we're building: making listening and knowledge compatible with real life.

03 · Community

The power of community.

Every transcription created by one user benefits the whole community. That's our vision of useful software: precious for the individual, powerful for the group.

04 · Simplicity

Simplicity first.

We build tools that do one thing, and do it very well. No unnecessary features, no interface that buries what matters.
