What it is
Podcast.co is a podcast hosting and management platform for publishing shows and distributing episodes to podcast directories. Episodes can go live when uploaded or be scheduled for a chosen date, and one-click distribution sends them to directories. It also supports invite-only private podcasts through a private web portal or RSS feed. Published episodes can generate podcast pages, and customizable players can be embedded for a show or an individual episode. Analytics cover popular episodes, listener locations, and top-performing platforms. Listed integrations include YouTube, WordPress, Slack, Twitter, Trello, Google Drive, LinkedIn, Gmail, Facebook, Radio.co, Zapier, and the Podcast.co API. The paid service has no free plan; pricing starts at $19/mo and includes a 14-day trial. Monthly download allowances apply across an account, though a show remains available if an account exceeds its allowance while upgrade options are discussed. The maker was founded in 2019 and is based in Manchester, United Kingdom.
