How does Skep know it's good?
Great podcast episodes get talked about. Skep reads those real reactions at scale and turns them into one honest score: the Buzzmeter.
1 · Listen to the buzz
We gather what real listeners say once they've heard it — the comments, the reactions, the lines people can't help repeating.
2 · Read it with AI
AI reads the feeling behind the words — how much an episode actually moved the people who heard it.
3 · Score it — the Buzzmeter
It all becomes one honest number — and the episodes people genuinely loved are the ones that rise to the top.
Two scores in, one verdict out
Like Rotten Tomatoes — a critics score and an audience score.

I used to follow five podcasts. Following more felt like too much to deal with. But at some point I wanted something new, so I googled “popular shows” and subscribed to a few more anyway — but never actually played them. I never knew where to start.
Then one day an episode from my trusted shows ended, and my app just autoplayed something from one of those shows I'd completely forgotten about. It got my attention immediately — that episode was so inspiring it ended up helping me through one of the hardest times of my life. I'm not even exaggerating.
And then it hit me. If one episode I never went looking for could change my life, how many more are out there right now — hidden inside shows I'll never follow, that I'll never even know existed? Thousands of them, probably. The exact episode I needed, buried in a podcast I'd never think to open. That's the moment Skep was born: an app that goes and finds the great episodes for me, wherever they are, so I never miss the one that matters.
The best episode of my life found me by accident. I'm building Skep so the next one doesn't have to.
There's a lot of buzz out there.
We bring you the honey.
A skep is the old straw beehive, from back before bees moved into boxes. I'm a beekeeper — so the metaphor was, quite literally, already in my garden.
