Podcastle
AI-powered platform for recording, editing, and producing podcasts and video content.

Podcastle was founded in 2020 by Artavazd (Arto) Yeritsyan, Vardan Dabaghyan, and Allan Rechtman. The company builds an AI-enabled platform for recording, editing, and producing podcasts and video, including text-to-speech and AI-assisted editing tools, and is one of the more prominent startups to emerge from Armenia's growing tech ecosystem. Podcastle raised a $1.75M seed round in November 2020, followed by additional funding including a $13.5M Series A led by Mosaic Ventures in February 2024, with participation from Sierra Ventures and RTP Global; total funding is roughly $22.2M.
