<p>The Podcast Searcher plugin uses <a href="http://Clarify.io" rel="nofollow ugc">Clarify’s</a> technology to make audio and video searchable.  It uses automatic speech recognition to extract spoken English, Spanish, and French and lets you retrieve detailed information about your media with simple API calls. Getting started takes minutes.</p>
<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Minimal setup: Adds search to your podcast without any additional plugins or custom theming required.</li>
<li>Simple to Use: You just add the link to your podcast as you’ve always done. We handle the rest.</li>
<li>No transcripts: Lets you skip the expensive and time-consuming step of getting transcripts.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<p>Now whenever you add a URL to your audio or video file – either by directly copy/pasting the url into the post or using a media embed – it will automatically be sent to Clarify for indexing.</p>
<p>Once the file is done processing, using your on-site search will return results describing where your word is heard in the audio down to the second. If you’re using the default embed/shortcode, these mentions will be clickable and jump you directly to that spot in the audio or video.</p>
<h4>Further Usage</h4>
<p>If you have archives with media – audio or video – already embedded, this plugin will not automatically index it for you. We didn’t want to surprise you with a massive bill. Instead, just open any of your old posts and re-save them. No editing or changes required. The media will get processed just like any other media.</p>
<h4>Housekeeping</h4>
<p>While this is hosted in WordPress’ SVN repository, no development is performed there. For the latest and greatest development version, check out the Github repository: https://github.com/Clarify/wp-clarify</p>
