Pitchguest
What it is
Pitchguest is a web service that helps podcast hosts find, assess, and book guests with AI-powered tools. Hosts can search by name, browse AI-curated ideas, or scout guests featured on similar podcasts. Profiles can include contact channels, suggested questions, why a guest may fit a show, and booking difficulty; the service also scores reply likelihood. Pitchguest drafts outreach using a show's tone and the guest's background, and can match the style of a sample email. Users can open drafted outreach in Gmail or Mail. A pipeline tracks guests from wishlist to live and supports recording and publish dates. AI-generated preparation documents may include introductions, story arcs, talking points, questions, clip moments, and topics to avoid. After a show, users can paste a transcript to generate show notes, timestamps, a Twitter thread, an Instagram caption, and a newsletter blurb. The Free plan is free and includes three guest research runs per month, a five-guest pipeline, and three outreach emails per month. Paid plans start with Podcaster at $9 a month, billed $9/mo.
