About
What scoop.fm is.
A weekly read on what the world's best operator podcasts said this week — sorted by topic, humanly curated, four short briefings, in your inbox once a week.
Why we made it
There is more good business audio published in a week than any human can listen to. Investors on tape, founders mid-build, sales leaders teaching their teams, AI practitioners walking through what they're actually shipping. The signal is real — and it's everywhere. The problem isn't quality. The problem is volume.
And the deeper problem is shape. You follow podcasts, but the thing you actually care about is a topic — a market, a play, a pattern, a tactic — and it's scattered across thirty feeds. A great idea on AI inference cost shows up on a founder show. A ticker call lands on a sales podcast. The valuable five minutes are buried inside two hours of preamble.
scoop.fm flips that. We listen so you don't have to, and we humanly curate what we hear into niche newsletters — one per topic — so you can follow the thing you care about instead of the host who happened to mention it. Then we tell you which episodes are worth your commute.
The method
We listen
Every week, across the most authoritative podcasts in investing, startups, sales, and AI. Hosted by operators, not pundits. Curated, not crawled.
We extract
Each conversation is mined for signals, ideas, plays, and patterns — tagged with the speaker, episode, and timestamp so you can verify and go deeper.
A human curates
No autopublishing. A human shapes each briefing — lead, narrative thread, supporting points, footnotes — and cuts anything that wouldn't survive a second read.

Who it's for
Founders, investors, operators, and sales leaders who want to know what was said yesterday without burning their morning to find out. If you'd normally have one of these podcasts on in the background, scoop.fm is the version you can read in three minutes — and then, if a moment lands, the version that tells you exactly where in the episode to drop the needle.
Who runs it
scoop.fm is built by the team behind Pod Engine — the podcast intelligence platform we use to source, transcribe, and search the conversations behind every edition.
Coming soon — personalized briefings
Four editions cover most of what most operators care about. But not all of it. Sometimes the topic you follow is narrower, weirder, or sits between two of ours: vertical SaaS GTM, climate hardware financing, agent infra, family-office allocators, biotech BD.
We're opening a small batch of personalized briefings — one newsletter, built around your beat, your podcasts, your cadence. Same method: we listen, a human curates, you read.
