PodVault
What it is
PodVault hosts podcast audio, generates RSS feeds, and supports public and private distribution. Listeners can use its web player or apps including Apple Podcasts, Overcast, and Pocket Casts.

Creators can charge for access through Stripe using one-time or recurring payments. Optional services include audio transcription and AI suggestions for episode titles and descriptions. Listener analytics are available, though PodVault’s terms say they are in beta and may be incomplete or change. PodVault describes uses including courses, coaching programs, memberships, seminars, author programs, and ministry teaching. It offers a 14-day trial but no free plan. Creator is $7.99 a month, billed $7.99 /month for 6 months and then $15.98 /month; it includes one podcast, 5 GB storage, and 5 hours/month show note transcription.
