We’ve taken the tools that built The Diary of a CEO, and turned them into a software platform you can use. - You can upload video & audio everywhere (including Spotify!) in one click. - See all your data in one place (video+audio) instead of a bunch of dashboards. - AI transcriptions, titles, descriptions, chapters, etc. - AI Clips that auto-post to learn what highlights are best. - AI to chat with your data so you can actually understand what’s working. - Auto-sync an entire youtube channel to Spotify (forever) No more manual work, no more multiple dashboards, no more guessing. https://flightcast.com/ Wednesday 8th October 2025Thursday 9th October 20251Poster: Vano Perplexity offers 1 year free trial of Pro plan if you connect your PayPal account: https://www.perplexity.ai/join/p/paypal-subscription Just tested and the redemption worked fine.
