## The use case: how World Bank deploys Wondercraft

The World Bank uses Wondercraft to turn its development research reports into weekly podcast episodes. Each topic gets a short policy-maker edition and a deeper researcher edition, both produced in multiple languages.

Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Wondercraft and World Bank, not ours.

> Now, every week, the team turns a single topic into two podcast episodes:

- **7**: “Published weekly in 7 languages”
- **48 hours**: “From final report to fully localized podcast, it all happens in under 48 hours.”
