Podcast Chapters

Podcast Chapters is a Mac application designed to help podcasters add chapter markers and comprehensive metadata to their MP3 files. The software enables creators to insert navigational chapters that allow listeners to jump directly to sponsors, skip spoilers, or preview upcoming content within episodes. The application works without re-encoding audio files, preserving original quality while only editing the metadata information.

The software features a streamlined workflow where users import their MP3 files and add chapter markers using a built-in audio player for precise placement. Users can set episode and podcast metadata including show art before exporting the finished file. The application operates entirely offline as a native Mac application without requiring file uploads or web interfaces.

Podcast Chapters includes power-user features such as a presets system for creators managing multiple shows, CSV import capabilities for automation workflows, and JSON data export options. The software supports podcast namespace RSS tags and provides comprehensive metadata viewing functionality. The application is available as a one-time purchase through the Mac App Store.
