Stop stitching keyword tools, AI scanners, clip editors, social schedulers, PR sheets, and media kits. PodSEO is one workspace. Four jobs that actually grow a podcast.
Topics, angles, gaps worth recording.
Search, AI, distribution coverage.
Clips, posts, links, PR opportunities.
Reports, profiles, charts, badges.
70% of new listeners use in-app search to find podcasts. Listening apps are acquisition channels, not just libraries. A growth strategy that ignores how listeners actually discover shows leaves audience on the table.
PodSEO closes the loop. Finds better topics to publish. Improves search and AI visibility so listeners can find every episode. Turns episodes into clips, posts, and PR opportunities. Proves traction with shareable profiles, charts, and reports.

Trending stories, AI-suggested keywords, and competitor gaps tell you what to record next. Before you spend an hour in the booth.
Track rankings on every podcast app. Score every metadata field. See where AI assistants recommend you, and where you should be cited but aren't.
Audio in. Social clips, captions, scheduled posts, link hubs, and editorial mention leads out. The Social Clips pipeline feeds the multi-network scheduler. One workflow, not five tools.
A public profile, Top X% badges, AI Charts placement, and shareable reports turn the growth you've earned into trust. And feed your next plan.
The good news: each leak has a fix that lives in PodSEO. The bad news: you probably have more than one open.

6,000+ podcasts optimizing on PodSEO
“Within weeks of optimizing my episodes with their tools, I saw my podcast ranking higher on search engines and showing up in places it never had before.”
A podcast growth platform is a single workspace that covers all the jobs that grow a show: deciding what to make, getting found on search and AI assistants, turning episodes into social posts and earned media, and proving traction to sponsors and listeners.
Generic SEO tools cover web search but not podcast directories. Schedulers post but don't tell you what to post. PodSEO is built specifically for the podcast growth loop, end to end.
A SEO tool only solves one stage: Get Found. PodSEO covers the full loop: Plan, Get Found, Promote, Prove. SEO is still here (with rankings, keywords, and metadata), but it's one workspace inside a larger platform, not the whole product.
Yes, but use the free tier to look around, not to grow. Free covers 5 keywords and a one-off AI visibility scan, enough to see the surface. Real growth starts on Podcaster ($) with 100 keywords, weekly AI tracking, and metadata fixes. Producer adds the Social Clips pipeline, PR Finder, Knowledge Check, Gap insights, and competitor tracking.
Instagram is live in beta with direct OAuth. X, LinkedIn, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube Shorts are on the roadmap. Each carries a "Coming next" or "Roadmap" badge in-app. We never claim support before the integration is live.
We send category-specific prompts to ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini on a schedule, then parse the responses for mentions, citations, and sentiment about your show. Knowledge Check verifies whether each model has accurate facts about your podcast, and Gap Insights tells you which prompts you should be appearing in but aren't.
Absolutely. Every PodSEO module is independent. You can use AI Visibility alone, rankings alone, or the full pipeline. Exports work as CSV, MP4 (clips), and copy-paste post text, so the rest of your stack keeps working.
Free is a sandbox to see the surface. Podcaster, Producer, and Studio run the actual growth: search, AI, social clips, PR, proof. From one workspace.
