Hapa Media makes free tools for people who like to create their own content. Four of them run in your web browser, and you can install each one as an app on your phone or computer. The transcriber is a desktop program you download and run on your own machine. Several of the tools work with Podcasting 2.0, a set of newer RSS feed tags that add chapters, transcripts, and other features that modern podcast apps can display.
| Podcast Chapter Creator | The Hapa Chapter Creator reads an episode transcript and builds a Podcasting 2.0 chapters file, which lets listeners jump to each section of an episode in their podcast app. Upload a transcript, enter an API key for Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini, and the tool returns chapter titles and start times. You can edit the titles before downloading the file. If you don’t have an API key, the page gives you a free prompt to paste into a regular AI chat instead. |
| Podcast Player | The Hapa Podcast Player lets you search for podcasts, follow your favorite shows, and listen in your browser without creating an account. It keeps a play queue, remembers where you stopped in each episode, saves a playback speed for each show, and downloads episodes to play offline. When a show provides chapters or transcripts, the player displays them as the episode plays. It also has a sleep timer, and you can export the shows you follow to other podcast apps. |
| Podcast RSS Feed Builder | The Hapa RSS Feed Builder creates and edits the RSS feed that podcast directories and apps read to find your show and its episodes. You can start a new feed or load an existing one, add and edit episodes, fill in the settings that Apple Podcasts and other directories require, and download the finished XML file. It supports Podcasting 2.0 tags for transcripts, chapters, hosts and guests, live streams, and Value4Value, which lets listeners send payments directly to the people who make the show. |
| Podcast Transcriber | The Hapa Podcast Transcriber turns your episode audio into text on your own computer, using the open-source Whisper speech recognition model. Your audio never leaves your machine, and there are no API keys or monthly fees. It can label each speaker in an interview, and it saves transcripts as TXT, SRT, VTT, JSON, and Podcasting 2.0 JSON files. It runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. |
| Video Editor – Reelcut | Reelcut is a free video editor that runs in your web browser on a computer or an Android phone. In Auto mode, it analyzes your clips for motion, loudness, and scene changes, picks the liveliest stretches, and assembles them in your clip order to the length you choose. In Manual mode, you set where each clip starts and ends. You can add photos, which play with a slow zoom, and add a song, which Reelcut can use to time its cuts to the beat. Both modes support crossfades, fades through black, and fades in and out at the start and end. Reelcut saves the finished video as a 1080p or 720p MP4, or saves the soundtrack alone as an MP3. All editing happens on your own device, so your clips are never uploaded. On Android, you can install Reelcut as an app and send clips to it straight from the share menu in Google Photos. It works in Chrome, Edge, and Brave. |
