Podigee Backstage

Why hosting stood still for ten years, and what changes now

For more than ten years, publishing a podcast worked the same way: you record a file, upload it to a host, and the feed carries it to the platforms. In this episode of Podigee Backstage I go back to how that came to be, from the early days of podcasting to the start of Podigee, and explain why I think it is changing now: video, platforms that take episodes through an API instead of the feed, and AI that can do the work nobody wants to do. I also show the assistant inside Podigee and how you can run your podcast from Claude or ChatGPT. Tell me what you want the next episode to be about.

How the new Podigee came to be, told by its cofounder

On International Podcast Day we launched a completely new Podigee experience. In this first episode of Podigee Backstage I walk through how it came to be: why we stopped adding to the old interface, what our customers told us in the one survey we asked everyone to answer, how we used AI to find the places where people got stuck, and why the new design is meant to feel like a recording studio. I also show the AI assistant, the MCP server and the new Studio, and talk about what we are working on next. Tell me what you want the next episode to be about.
