Getting Started
Upload your first episode, understand the clip plan, and export your results.
1. Create an account
Sign up at punchline.gg with your email or Google account. The free Starter plan gives you 3 episodes per month with full clip intelligence — no credit card required.
2. Upload an episode
From your dashboard, drag and drop your podcast file (MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, MOV, or WebM — up to 3 hours). Give it a title, select the spoken language, and confirm you have rights to the content. Punchline uses resumable uploads, so even large files are safe on spotty connections.
3. Automatic transcription
Once uploaded, punchline transcribes your episode using Deepgram Nova-3 with speaker diarisation. You'll see real-time progress — typically 2-3 minutes for an hour-long episode. If the primary service is unavailable, Whisper kicks in as a fallback.
4. AI analysis
After transcription, Claude analyses your content and identifies the most compelling, shareable moments. Each clip is classified into one of 7 moment types (Surprising Fact, Hot Take, Emotional Beat, Humour, Compelling Argument, Story Climax, Actionable Insight) and scored for 5 platforms.
5. Review your clip plan
Your clip plan shows each identified moment ranked by confidence score. For each clip you'll see: timestamp range, moment type badge, platform suitability scores (TikTok, X/Twitter, YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn, Instagram Reels), ready-to-use hooks, and full post captions with hashtags.
6. Export your results
Export your clip plan as JSON (for developer integrations) or CSV (for spreadsheets and project management tools). The export includes all clips, scores, hooks, and captions.
