One of the common features for companies to build in the age of AI is to connect services like email, calendar, documents, and notes to create a daily brief in text or audio format. Spotify is also giving in to this temptation and releasing a new standalone desktop app called Studio by Spotify Labs for this purpose.
Today, the company released the ability for users to explore a topic by creating a podcast about it. Spotify is also adding personal context to this podcast generation tool. And, because in 2026 companies can’t refrain from adding agents to their apps, the new Studio app has an agent that can browse the web and fetch personal information to create a personal podcast.
