Hey HN! Excited to share Lenny's Podcast Search with the HN community.

I'm a big fan of Lenny Rachitsky, devouring every single edition of his newsletter and podcast.

This product is exactly what it says on the tin. A semantic search engine on top of Lenny's Podcast content.

Let me know what you think.

Podcasts become very conversational which make it pleasant to listen to. Long chats reduce the signal to noise ratio and waste listeners' time.

The Lenny's podcast semantic search gives me the chance to find only the 'filet mignon' of the content without much faf. I love it as I built it to satisfy a personal need.

Disclosure: I helped build it. We are adding more content to it. What shall we add next and what needs do you have around searchable podcasts and expert knowledge?

I really like the idea of having a search engine on top of podcasts. It's something you rarely listen to just sitting still (for me it's mostly during running) so I find it hard to get back to relevant bits (or find new ones). Definitely the future of this space.
This is a great demo, but really like to have something like this integrated in the most popular podcast apps and platforms. Maybe offer it as a service to app creators like Pocket Casts and Overcast?
