You wrote a great blog post. Maybe a deep research thread. A newsletter issue. A product explainer.
And then it sat there — read by a few hundred people, forgotten by most.
The problem isn't the content. It's the format. Audio reaches audiences that text never will. Commuters, gym-goers, people who scan rather than read. But turning written content into a podcast traditionally means: booking a studio, coordinating guests, recording multiple takes, and spending hours in editing software.
Or you paste a URL and click a button.
Meet Text-to-Podcast
LeanVox's Text-to-Podcast takes any article URL or raw text and converts it into a two-host podcast-style MP3 conversation — in seconds.
No equipment. No guests. No editing.
The two hosts — Alex (male) and Jordan (female) — have a natural back-and-forth dialogue covering your content. The result sounds like a real podcast episode, not a robot reading your article aloud.
How It Works
- Script generation — Claude Haiku reads your content and writes a natural dialogue script between Alex and Jordan.
- Audio rendering — The LeanVox Dialogue API renders the script using two distinct voices, producing a downloadable MP3.
Before the audio generates, you can view and edit the script directly in the tool. Toggle edit mode, make your changes, then hit generate.
It's also a live demo of what the LeanVox Dialogue API can do — if you're building a product that needs multi-voice narration, this is the capability you can tap into programmatically.
Choose Your Style
| Style | Best For |
|---|---|
| Casual | Blog posts, newsletters, personal essays |
| Professional | Research papers, technical docs, industry reports |
| Debate | Opinion pieces, controversial topics, two-sided arguments |
The Debate style is worth calling out. Instead of Alex and Jordan agreeing, they argue both sides of your topic. Great for op-eds, hot takes, or any content where tension makes it more listenable.
