Archive finished episodes off your workspace

Every Monday, WebRun opens Podcastle, finds the projects marked finished or exported in the last week, downloads the final audio and transcript for each, files them into a dated episode folder in Google Drive alongside the show notes, and WhatsApps you a list of what was archived and anything missing.

In short

How do I archive finished podcast episodes automatically?

WebRun opens Podcastle every Monday and finds the projects you finished in the last week. It files each episode's final audio, transcript, and show notes into a dated Google Drive folder, then WhatsApps you a summary listing what was archived and any episode still missing a transcript.

  • Every finished episode has audio and transcript filed the week it wraps
  • The archive stays searchable through one consistent naming pattern
  • Episodes missing a transcript are flagged instead of quietly skipped

Questions, answered

Will it delete projects from Podcastle after archiving?

No. WebRun copies the final audio and transcript into Drive and leaves the original project untouched. Deleting anything from your workspace stays a manual decision you make once you have checked the archive.

Will it publish or share an episode?

No. WebRun files finished exports into your own Drive folder. It never publishes to a podcast host, shares a link publicly, or posts an episode anywhere, so distribution stays entirely in your hands.

What if an episode has no transcript yet?

It is called out in the WhatsApp summary rather than archived half-finished. The folder is only created once both the final audio and the transcript exist, which keeps the archive consistent.

Put this on autopilot.
