Prices, with the date
What we
checked.
As of 14 November 2026, RSS.com’s pricing page lists four plans in US dollars. Free is $0 with no trial and no expiry. Plus is $19.99 a month, or $180 billed annually. Pro is $34.99 a month, or $312 billed annually. Max is $49.99 a month, or $444 billed annually. The page says annual billing saves 25% and that paid plans have a 30-day money-back guarantee. Custom and Enterprise plans are by conversation.
Free covers one audio podcast with unlimited episodes and downloads, distribution, a podcast website, listener donations, and standard analytics. A footnote says Free asks for a credit card before the second episode is uploaded, without a charge. Plus adds programmatic ads, paid subscriptions on Apple Podcasts, AI-generated transcripts, advanced analytics, YouTube videos made from audio episodes, and up to 3 team members. Pro hosts up to 10 podcasts with unlimited team members and all-time analytics. Max adds unlimited audio and video podcasts, video on Apple Podcasts, and API access.
$180 a year for Plus is $5 under Podhome’s $185, for one podcast and up to 3 team members. Podhome’s plan does not step up for a second show, a fourth teammate, video, or the API. Optional Audio Enhancement is $0.03 per minute after the trial. That is usage, not a second plan.
What RSS.com does well
The Free plan is a real free host for one show: unlimited episodes and downloads, distribution, a website, and listener donations, with no expiry on the pricing page. Paid plans add programmatic ads, which Podhome does not have. For a single show that wants programmatic ads, Plus is the plan built for that.
The steps are shows, teammates, video, and the API. A second show means Pro. Video and the API mean Max. Podhome keeps shows, teammates, video enclosures, the API, and Podhome AI on one subscription, and it does not sell ads into your episodes.
