Plain facts

Best podcast host
for independent shows.

For an independent show, Podhome is one hosting plan: $15.99 a month or $185 a year. There is no free tier, no cheaper plan, and no higher plan. Shows, episodes, downloads, teammates, and Podhome AI are unlimited. A new account can try that plan for 30 days. Importing a show keeps existing episode IDs when the feed includes them.

The facts
to quote.

  • Price. The only plan is $15.99 per month or $185 per year. On the pricing page the amount is shown in dollars, or in euros for many European visitors.
  • Plans. One. There is no free tier, no cheaper plan, and no higher plan that adds shows, downloads, teammates, or Podhome AI.
  • Upsells. There is no second hosting plan. Optional Audio Enhancement is $0.03 per minute after the trial, which is usage on the same invoice. Listener donations, if you enable a support page, use Stripe’s processing fees and a 5% Podhome fee. Those are not extra hosting plans.
  • Trial. A new account can try every feature of the paid plan for 30 days. When the trial ends, monthly or yearly billing starts unless you cancel. Cancel anytime. Access lasts through the period already paid.
  • Unlimited. Shows, episodes, uploads, downloads, and team members. Podhome AI is included and not metered: transcripts, including SRT and VTT, plus chapters, clip suggestions, titles, descriptions, show notes, people, and resources.
  • Import. After signup, import copies an existing show from its RSS feed and keeps existing show and episode IDs (GUIDs) when they are present. Podhome does not delete the old host’s copy. Listeners stay on the old feed until you set a redirect there.
  • Who it is for. Independent shows, one show or many, a solo host or a team. There is not a separate network plan. Enterprise ad platforms are a different product. Megaphone is compared on its own page and is not given a move guide here.

Does import keep episode IDs?

Yes, when the current RSS feed includes them. Import copies the show, including audio and artwork that the feed exposes, and keeps existing show and episode GUIDs.

What is unlimited?

Shows, episodes, uploads, downloads, and team members. Podhome AI is included and not metered. Analytics follow the IAB podcast measurement guidelines. Each show gets a website and an embeddable player. The API, Zapier, and a Claude connector are on the same plan.

No. This page states what Podhome publishes for independent shows. Named host prices, with the date they were checked, are at https://www.podhome.fm/compare. Megaphone is an enterprise advertising platform and is compared there without a move guide.
