Everything a show needs, nothing bolted on

One dashboard runs the whole show. No plugins, no third party tools to glue together.

Publishing without fuss

Upload, schedule, publish. Rich show notes, chapters, artwork per episode, and your RSS feed updates the moment you do.

Stats you can defend

Downloads counted server side to the IAB v2.3 guidelines: unique listeners, 1 MB minimum, bots filtered. Countries, apps, per episode, CSV export.

AI transcription

Every episode transcribed automatically if you want, added to your feed so Apple Podcasts shows it. Free hours on every plan, then $1 an hour.

AI show notes

From the transcript: title ideas, ready show notes, chapters, quotes and social posts. You review, click apply, done.

Dynamic ad insertion

Pre roll, mid roll, post roll stitched into every download, with the mid roll placed automatically at the quietest moment. Swap campaigns any time.

YouTube, automatically

Publish an audio episode and a waveform video lands on your YouTube channel by itself, in your show's colours. Publish a video episode and the video itself goes up.

Video episodes

Upload MP4, M4V or MOV up to 5 GB. Podcast apps get an audio version made for them, your episode page plays the video, and YouTube gets the real thing.

Exclusive content for subscribers

Mark an episode subscribers only and it leaves the public feed. Each subscriber gets a personal feed with an access code that works in any podcast app, ad free, and never on YouTube.

A website for your show

A public page for the show and every episode: player, notes, chapters, searchable transcript, subscribe buttons. Four themes, your colours, embeds for any site.

Move in, keep everything

Paste your old feed and every episode arrives with its original IDs, so subscribers keep following. Audio, artwork and chapters copy across, and your download history imports too.

Your team, your roles

Invite co hosts as editors and sponsors as viewers. Everyone sees exactly what their role allows, nothing more.

Moving is the easy part

From any host: Podbean, Buzzsprout, Spotify for Creators, Libsyn, Captivate or anywhere with an RSS feed.

Paste your feedWe read your current RSS feed and show you exactly what will move before anything happens.
Everything copies overEpisodes arrive at once with their original IDs. Audio, artwork and chapter files copy across in the background while you carry on.
Keep publishing anywhereUntil you switch, new episodes at your old host are picked up every hour. No frozen weeks, no gap.
Flip the switchPoint your old feed here and update Apple and Spotify. Subscribers follow automatically because the IDs never changed. Load your download history, mark the move complete, done.

Episode files up to 5 GB each: MP3, M4A or AAC for audio; MP4, M4V or MOV for video (Pro and Studio). Prices in US dollars. Free AI hours are per show per month; beyond them, AI time is $1 per hour of audio, billed by the minute, and nothing when you don't use it. Unlimited storage and unmetered bandwidth carry a fair use policy. Plan details may still be tuned before public launch.

Fair questions

Will my subscribers come with me?

Yes. Every episode keeps its original ID when you move in, and your old feed redirects here. To a listener's app nothing changed; new episodes simply keep arriving.

Do I lose my download numbers?

No. Export your history from your old host and import it here. Your all time total carries on, clearly labelled so measured numbers stay separate from imported ones.

What does the AI actually cost?

Every plan includes free AI hours each month: 2 on Starter, 4 on Pro and 8 on Studio, which covers most weekly shows. Beyond that it is $1 per hour of audio, billed by the minute. Unused means unbilled.

Can I sell exclusive episodes?

On Pro and Studio, yes. Mark an episode subscribers only and it leaves the public feed. Each subscriber gets a personal feed link with an access code that works in Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Pocket Casts and the rest. Today you add subscribers yourself; paid sign up with checkout arrives with public launch.

Is there a contract?

No. Monthly, cancel whenever you like, and your feed and episodes are yours to take with you; we will even redirect your feed out if you leave.

Where is my audio hosted?

On a global edge network: your episodes are served from a location near each listener, wherever they are.

Early access is by invitation

We are onboarding a small group of shows before public launch. Ask for an invitation and we will set you up personally.
