Tools that fit

api

Taddy API : Fetch top podcasts by genre

LLM

OpenAI : Summarize podcast content

Services

Gmail : Send formatted email with summaries

Watch out for

The Taddy API may return empty or malformed JSON for niche genres so add robust error handling and fallback logic.
OpenAI token limits can truncate long podcast transcripts so implement a chunking strategy before sending to the LLM.
Gmail API scopes must include full mail access so verify OAuth permissions are correctly configured in the service account.
