FAQ

Noctua is your personal wisdom companion. It transforms written sources you choose — articles, newsletters, long-form posts — into audio editions prepared and delivered to a feed that only you control.

Any public web page. Paste a link to the article or post you want read to you, and Noctua handles the rest. Direct file uploads are not supported today.

Most sources are prepared into an edition within a few minutes. Longer pieces take proportionally longer. Progress is visible on your dashboard.

Noctua generates a personal podcast feed of your editions. Subscribe to it in any podcast app that supports custom feeds — Apple Podcasts, Pocket Casts, or Overcast — and listen to your collection wherever you listen to everything else.

Yes. Apple Podcasts supports custom feeds. To add yours:

1. Copy your personal feed URL from your Noctua dashboard.
2. Open Apple Podcasts and go to your Library.
3. Tap the menu icon (three dots) in the top-right corner.
4. Select Follow a Show by URL…
5. Paste your feed URL and tap Follow.

Your editions will then appear alongside any other show in Apple Podcasts.

Not currently. Spotify does not support adding custom podcast feeds. Pocket Casts and Overcast both work seamlessly with your Noctua feed.

Your sources, editions, and audio are private to your account. Noctua never shares your content with other users or third parties. Your collection is yours.
