MinusPod

A self-hosted server that removes ads from podcasts before you hit play: it transcribes locally with faster-whisper or Parakeet, detects and cuts ad segments with your choice of LLM or System One, and learns sponsors across episodes.

Highlights

  • Local transcription with faster-whisper (Whisper) or NVIDIA Parakeet TDT 0.6B v3 on GPU or CPU, or through a remote API.
  • Native System One support for detection and verification, with an experimental review stage; docs/system-one.md holds the details.
  • Cross-episode ad patterns built from your corrections catch repeat sponsors without re-asking the LLM.
  • Audio-side signals: loudness analysis, DAI transition detection, a cross-fetch differential, pre/post-roll, VAD-gap, and per-feed cue detection.
  • Segment categories (sponsor, cross-promo, self-promo, interaction, intro/outro/recap) resolve to remove, beep, keep, or mark.

Watch out

README reviewed 2026-10-17 is truncated before the Quick start section, so install commands, hardware requirements, and container details are not in the digest. The System One path is labeled experimental, and no supported models, endpoints, or detection-accuracy numbers appear in the excerpt.
