Features
Everything between the last edit and the first listener
Hosting, distribution, stats and money. The parts of podcasting that are not talking into a microphone.
Automatic leveling
Every upload is normalized to -16 LUFS with a true-peak limit, so a quiet guest and a loud host end up at the same volume.
One feed, every app
Publish to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube Music, Amazon Music and the open directories from one valid, fast RSS feed.
Downloads you can quote
IAB-certified counting with bots and duplicate requests filtered out. Break numbers down by episode, app, country and city.
Transcripts and chapters
Speaker-labeled transcripts in about two minutes, plus suggested chapter markers you can rename and drag into place.
Dynamic ad insertion
Mark ad slots once and swap sponsor reads across your whole back catalog. Target by country and set an end date.
Private supporter feeds
Give paying listeners a personal RSS link with bonus and ad-free episodes. Revoke one link without touching the others.
Testimonials
Podcasters who stopped fighting their host
Sample reviews written for this template. Replace them with your own.
“Our guests record on laptop mics from three time zones. The leveling makes them sound like they sat in the same room.”
Erin CallowayHost, interview show“Downloads dropped 18% when we switched hosts. Then our sponsor said these were the first numbers they believed.”
Samuel AchebeProducer, news podcast“The supporter feed replaced a clunky membership plugin. 312 listeners pay $5 a month and get the episodes ad-free.”
Mei Lin ZhouIndependent podcaster“I swapped a sponsor read across 90 back-catalog episodes in about four minutes. That used to be a weekend of re-uploading.”
Jonah FeldNetwork operations“Transcripts with chapters got our episodes showing up in search. Organic listens are up about a third since spring.”
Priscila DuarteMarketing lead, B2B show“The directory status page caught a broken listing before our launch day. Small thing, saved us a very bad morning.”
Owen GallagherHost, history podcast

FAQ
Questions, answered
Something else? Our support team are podcasters too and usually reply within a few hours.
Can I move my existing show without losing subscribers?
Yes. Paste your current RSS feed URL and we import every episode, show notes and artwork. You then set a 301 redirect at your old host, and podcast apps follow it automatically. Subscribers keep listening without doing anything.
What counts as an upload hour?
The length of the audio you publish. A 54-minute episode uses 54 minutes. Hours reset every month, and if you go over we ask you to upgrade rather than silently charging overage fees.
What does loudness leveling actually do?
We measure each upload and normalize it to -16 LUFS for stereo (-19 for mono) with a -1 dB true-peak ceiling, the targets most podcast apps expect. You can switch it off per episode, and the original file is always kept.
Which audio formats can I upload?
WAV, MP3, M4A, AAC, FLAC and AIFF up to 2 GB per file. We publish a 128 kbps MP3 by default, which is what most podcast apps expect, and keep your original upload.
How are downloads counted?
To the IAB 2.2 podcast measurement guidelines: repeated requests from the same listener within 24 hours count once, and known bots, crawlers and prefetches are filtered. That is why sponsors accept the numbers.
How do supporter feeds work?
Each paying listener gets their own private RSS link that works in most podcast apps. You can connect your existing membership platform or sell access directly, and revoke any single link if it gets shared.
What happens if I cancel?
Cancel anytime from billing settings. Your feed keeps working until the end of the paid month, and you can export every episode and redirect your feed to a new host, so leaving takes the same five minutes as arriving.
