# What Is Powerbeans? AI Audio Products for Publishers

> Powerbeans builds AI-powered engagement products for publishers that convert articles into audio, playlists, and summaries automatically — no editorial work required.

Powerbeans builds AI-based engagement products for publishers and media companies. You embed a single widget into your CMS, and Powerbeans automatically transforms your article catalog into AI-narrated audio, audio summaries, bingeable playlists, and text summaries, complete with built-in monetization. Trusted by Forbes, Clarín, EFE, and dozens of other leading publications, Powerbeans delivers measurable audience engagement and new ad revenue without requiring any editorial effort or technical overhead.

## How It Works

Powerbeans plugs into your existing publishing workflow in three steps:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Embed the Widget">
    Paste one line of JavaScript into your CMS template. The widget loads asynchronously from a CDN so your page speed is unaffected. Each product — Audio Player, Playlist, Text Summaries — has its own widget snippet.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Content Is Ingested">
    Powerbeans automatically sets up content ingestion, or you can send articles directly via API. New articles are picked up and queued for processing automatically, with no manual uploads and no RSS wrangling.
  </Step>

  <Step title="New formats are published automatically">
    You choose which formats to generate (AI audio, audio summaries, and text summaries), and Powerbeans produces and publishes them directly on your site.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Products

Powerbeans offers three products. We recommend implementing the Player first and adding others later.
