PodView
What it is
PodView is a web service for independent podcasters and creators who want a professional podcast site without building one from scratch. It creates episode pages, show notes, search, and custom-domain sites. Shows can be brought in from an RSS feed or a YouTube channel or playlist, with episodes synchronized automatically; the timing depends on the plan. Every plan, including Free, includes the professional themes. Episodes carrying a Podcasting 2.0 HLS video stream can play inline. Audience features include email signups, reviews, contact forms, voicemail collection, and guest management, with availability varying by plan. Analytics are first-party and cookieless, while paid plans add per-episode plays, completion rates, and drop-off data. Paid plans also provide AI discovery pages, and Producer adds controls for AI descriptions and citations. The Free plan uses a PodView subdomain. Paid plans start at $5.99 per month when billed annually. PodView runs in a browser.
