Free tool · Recordable outline in seconds
The podcast episode outline, ready to record from.
Drop in a specific episode topic and get a structured outline in seconds — cold-open hook, timed segments with concrete talking points, B-roll prompts, and a closing beat. Open the outline on your desk while you record. Free, no signup.
How it works
Describe the episode
A specific episode topic, not a show topic. The more concrete the input, the more recordable the outline. "Negotiating your first software-engineer salary" beats "career advice."
Pick format + length
Interview, solo, narrative, or panel — and 15, 30, 45, or 60 minutes. The model adjusts segment count, time estimates, and whether host questions are generated (interview + panel only).

Cold-open hook, timed segments with talking points, B-roll prompts to capture beyond the main convo, and a closing beat. Open it on the desk while you record.
Why this is different
Different from the Episode Idea Generator
The Idea Generator answers "what do I make episodes about?" The Outline Generator answers "what do I do once I sit down to record THIS episode?" Two different problems, two different tools.
Real talking points, not stage directions
Most outlining tools generate stage directions like "discuss the topic" or "introduce yourself." Useless when you're trying to record. We generate concrete sentences a host could glance at while recording.
Format-aware
Interview formats include host questions per segment. Narrative formats include story-arc beats. Solo formats lean first-person essay structure. The output shape changes with the format.
Frequently asked
- How is this different from the Episode Idea Generator?
- The Idea Generator gives you 50 episode ideas grouped into themed series — "what should I make episodes about?" The Outline Generator gives you a recordable outline for ONE specific episode you've already chosen — "what should I do once I sit down to record THIS episode?" Use the Idea Generator first to plan a season, then use the Outline Generator to prep each episode.
- How long does generation take?
- Roughly 6-10 seconds. We make a single AI call that builds the cold open, segments, talking points, B-roll prompts, and closing beat together so the parts reinforce each other rather than drift.
- Will the outline match my actual recording length?
- Approximately. The model targets the requested total length (15, 30, 45, or 60 minutes) and distributes time estimates across segments. Real recordings always run long; budget the total generously and trim in editing.
- Why does interview format include host questions but solo doesn't?
- Solo episodes don't need host questions — you're writing an essay-shaped monologue. Interview and panel formats include 3-5 open-ended questions per segment so you have something to ask the guest. Narrative formats lean on story beats rather than questions.
- Is this really free?
- Yes. Five free outlines per device per day. The output is yours to use commercially. If you want unlimited generations plus the recording studio that ships them — record, transcribe live, AI-clean the audio, and host the RSS feed — start a 14-day free trial of EasyCast Studio.
- Can I save the outline and come back to it?
- Right now it's a one-shot generation — open the outline in a tab while you record, or copy the structure into your prep doc. EasyCast Studio accounts persist outlines alongside the recording so the structure is right there in the studio when you start recording.
