TL;DR: Nostr has never seen a bot like this. Tag @jamie_bot in a note, zap about 10¢ in sats, and a full research agent goes to work, dropping the exact podcast clips that answer your question right in your timeline. Real audio, timestamped and verifiable, pulled from 120,000+ hours. No app, no signup. Nothing else on Nostr comes close.
You know the feeling
You're mid-thread. Someone makes a claim. You know a podcaster covered this, you just can't place who, or when, or which of 400 episodes. Or you want the real read on a macro move or a news story, straight from people who actually study it. Not the loudest reply guy.
Old answer: shrug, or burn twenty minutes scrubbing YouTube.
New answer: tag the most powerful bot on Nostr and let it do the digging.
The data is the point
Want to answer one question the way Jamie does? Build the whole thing first. Ingest hundreds of feeds. Transcribe 120,000+ hours of audio. Chunk it, embed it, index it. That's tens of thousands of dollars in transcription and compute and months of engineering before you ask a single question.
Or you tag Jamie and get a reply in your timeline for about a dime.
Tag it: "@jamie_bot what are the benefits of Nostr?" You get the moments, not a summary:
- The actual clips, with timestamps
- Deep links you press play on and verify yourself
- Pulled from 120,000+ hours of real conversation, not a model making things up
Ground truth you can hear. You never left Nostr to get it.
How it works
- Zap to fund. Send Jamie at least 10¢ USD in sats. Your balance credits automatically.
- Tag it. Mention @jamie_bot in a kind 1 note with your question.
- Get the result. Jamie deducts ~10¢, searches the corpus, replies with sourced clips.
No login. No card. No checkout. Your npub is your account. Lightning is the cash register. One top-up covers hundreds of queries.
> One catch: your zap can't be anonymous, or there's no way to know whose balance to credit. Open Jamie's profile in Ditto, Damus, or Wisp and zap from there: primal.net/p/jamie_bot. Heads up that Primal sends anonymous zaps by default with no way to change it, so fund from one of the others.
One tag. A research team behind it.
Tagging Jamie doesn't run a keyword search. It hands your question to an NLP-tuned agent that plans the whole job: it attacks the topic from multiple angles, cross-references sources, and synthesizes one answer with playable clips. Ask about CBDCs and you get the Bitcoin maximalist read, the Fed angle, and the privacy case in a single reply, not one hot take.
Under the hood it's DeepSeek V4, a 1.6-trillion-parameter model. And it doesn't make things up: you get the actual audio with timestamps, receipts instead of paraphrases.
All of that fires off one mention. Most tools lock far less behind a $20 to $50 monthly subscription. You pay about a dime, only when you ask. No other bot on Nostr puts this much firepower one tag away, and it isn't close.
Bitcoin, Nostr, and AI, finally clicking
This only works because three things line up. Nostr gives you an identity and an inbox that nobody can revoke. Bitcoin over Lightning lets you pay a dime instantly with no account, card, or middleman. And the AI does the research the second your sats land. No one piece carries it alone. Your npub is the login, the zap is the checkout, and the agent is the payoff, all inside one note. This is what these three were supposed to do together, and Jamie is the first bot to actually pull it off at this level.
Try it
Open Jamie's profile and tag it with something you've been wondering about. Zap a thousand sats from Ditto, Damus, or Wisp, and watch it come back with the receipts.
FAQ
Do I need an account?
No. If you can zap on Nostr, you can use Jamie. Your npub is your account.
What does it cost?
About 10¢ in sats per query. Fund any amount at or above that and it draws down as you go.
Why not just ask ChatGPT what a podcaster said?
It invents quotes and says them with a straight face. Jamie only returns what's actually in the transcript, with timestamps and audio you verify in a tap.
Do I get one answer or the whole picture?
The whole picture. Jamie attacks your question from multiple angles in a single reply, so you get the competing takes, not just the first match.
What's powering it?
An NLP-tuned agent running on DeepSeek V4, a 1.6-trillion-parameter model. You ask in plain English; it plans and runs the research for you.
Why won't my zap credit?
It was anonymous. Zap from Ditto, Damus, or Wisp. Primal sends anonymous zaps by default and can't be credited.
How big is the corpus?
120,000+ hours of podcasts, searchable by meaning, not keywords.
