Spotify Launches Personalized AI Audio with New CLI Tool

In recent years, applications like Google’s NotebookLM, Hero, and more recently Adobe Acrobat, have enabled users to transform documents, schedules, and articles into podcasts. Today, Spotify is joining this trend by offering the ability to access these podcasts directly from its app, although it requires some programming skills.

Spotify announced that users who are already utilizing tools like OpenAI's Codex, Anthropic's Claude Code, or OpenClaw can now use its new command-line interface (CLI), currently in beta, to create podcasts. These podcasts can then be imported into Spotify for later listening.

"People are already starting to use their agents to create personal audio that punctuates their day: from summaries of class notes before an exam to briefings on what’s scheduled in their calendar. And they are asking for a way to listen to them on Spotify, where they already consume everything else," the company stated in a blog post.

The generated podcasts will appear in the user's Spotify library for easy access but will not be available to other users on the platform.

To use this new feature, users must visit the tool's GitHub page and follow the provided instructions. They will need to log in to their Spotify accounts via a browser.

Once this step is completed, users can submit a request such as "Create an audio session that dives into the history of the World Cup with details about key players, the locations it has been held, and what I should know about this year's matches," and ask the agent to generate a podcast, which will then be recorded on Spotify. A link to their Spotify podcast list will also be provided.
