Find answers in podcasts with GoodBarber Chatbot

Take a local radio station with live programmes, a schedule and interviews available on demand in its app. Every recording has a title and a description. Those help listeners browse, but an interview often contains useful details that never make it into the summary.In our example, the episode is called “The city we share”. Its description introduces a conversation about everyday life in the city. During the recording, an urban planner explains the city's approach to summer heat: planting trees along school routes, adding shade to playgrounds and replacing some paved surfaces with planted areas.None of those measures appears in the title or description. A listener remembers the subject and asks:Which episode explained how the city plans to reduce summer heat?We have added audio podcasts as knowledge sources for GoodBarber Chatbot so questions like this can lead back to your programmes. There are two levels: the written information you publish about each episode, and the spoken content you choose to have transcribed.

Your Twitch live streams and videos, now in your app

The short version. Twitch is an extension of GoodBarber, the no-code app builder, that adds a Twitch channel as the source of a Video section. When the channel is live, the stream sits at the top of the section; the rest of the time, the section lists the channel's videos. You connect it once, with a Client ID and a Client Secret from Twitch's developer console. It is free for Content apps: each section counts as one of the extensions included in your plan.The audience is on Twitch. In September 2026, viewers watched 1.51 billion hours of live streams there, with 2.1 million people watching at any given moment on average, according to TwitchTracker. Here is how the extension plays out for a creator who goes live every Tuesday at 8 pm.

Turn documents into answers with GoodBarber Chatbot

In any app, publishing a useful document is only part of the job. People also need to find the right information when they are about to act. A clearly named file helps someone browsing a library, but a reader may arrive with a more immediate question.Employee communication is only one possible application. The same approach can support learning resources, member guides, technical references or any other useful documents shared through an app. For our example, consider a colleague trying to book a client trip who needs to know:Which travel expenses need prior approval?We have added document sources to GoodBarber Chatbot so that the files you already maintain can support these conversations. You select the documents. Users ask in their own words. The assistant looks for relevant passages and uses them to build a response.The question becomes a way into the policy. Employees can start with the decision in front of them, even when they do not know the title of the document that explains it.
