Customer Spotlight: Enhancing Podcast Accessibility with Deepgram Transcription on Fountain

Fountain, a podcast platform, has partnered with Deepgram to integrate AI-powered automatic speech recognition (ASR) into its service, offering highly accurate transcripts that increase podcast reach and drive audience engagement. Podcast transcripts are essential for accessibility, allowing hearing-impaired individuals or those who speak English as a second language to engage with content. They also improve discoverability by enabling search engines to index podcast content, enhance user experience through better search capabilities, and provide more options for sharing content on social media platforms. Deepgram's integration with Fountain allows users to search through transcripts and find specific points to start playing from, while podcasters can repurpose their content into different formats like blogs or newsletters. The partnership has the potential to drive significant positive changes for both podcasters and listeners alike by offering high-quality transcripts quickly and affordably, transforming the listening experience and enabling Fountain to stand out among other platforms.
