Features

Built to subtract

Everything below exists to do one thing: subtract what's between you and the show you pressed play on.

01

Subtract the ads

AI episode segmentation

Every episode is automatically split into its real parts — intro, topics, ad breaks, outro — using transcript analysis and audio fingerprinting. Segmentation is the engine everything else runs on.

Ad skipping

Detected ad segments skip automatically — including dynamically inserted ads, which move between listens and defeat simple timestamp lists. You hear a clean splice, not a jump.

Smart segment skip

Skip forward to the next segment or back to the previous one with a single tap, instead of guessing at 30-second hops.

Topic blocking

Tell Subtrackt what you never want to hear about. Segments on blocked topics are flagged so you can skip — or never even start them.

02

Sound, handled

Shower Mode

A one-tap profile that regulates volume and EQ so spoken voices stay intelligible over running water and room echo.

Per-device EQ memory

Your car, your earbuds, and your kitchen speaker all sound different. Subtrackt remembers a custom EQ for each Bluetooth device and switches automatically.

Ear Guard

Set a volume ceiling per output — plus an after-idle limit, so resuming hours later never blasts you at last night's volume.

03

Find and follow

Just ask — voice & in-app AI

Natural-language control on Android, on-device, built on Google's latest Gemini framework: "play the latest episode of…", "skip this sponsor". Hands stay on the wheel.

AI search

Search across your shows by meaning, not just titles — find the episode where they actually discussed the thing.

Follow-along transcripts

Synchronized transcripts that highlight as the audio plays — built for accessibility, great for everyone.

Predictions and custom mixes

Subtrackt learns what you reach for and queues it up — and you can build custom mixes that pull segments across episodes and shows.

04

Support the show

Sponsors & promo codes, searchable

On the roadmap

Skipping ads shouldn't mean creators lose your support. Subtrackt collects each show's sponsors and promo codes into one easy, searchable place — so backing your favorite podcasters is a tap, not a scavenger hunt through ad reads you skipped.

Even the business model subtracts

What Subtrackt won't do

No ads in the app

You pay $6, not your attention. Subtrackt has no banner ads, no injected audio ads, no "watch this to unlock." Skipping ads and then showing you ads would be a strange way to run a company.

No selling your info for marketing

We don't sell your personal information to advertisers or data brokers — not for marketing, not dressed up as "anonymized" data that traces back to you. Your listening is yours.

No third-party trackers

No advertising or analytics SDKs riding along in the app, quietly building a profile of you. The app does its job and minds its business.
