Launch
I'm Brian. I still record every week.
I've produced a podcast for years. 270+ episodes, real guests, real deadlines. I've had the recording tool fall apart with a guest waiting on me. I've also spent the four hours afterward bouncing between an editor, a thumbnail tool, a scheduler, and five browser tabs. I built ShowMuse for both.
I got tired of paying three companies to do one job badly, so I built the thing I wanted. Every feature exists because a real episode of mine needed it.
I ship updates most weeks, and I answer my own messages. If something's broken, you're talking to the person who can fix it.
Brian, host and builder
One place.
From first invite to last post.
Use the features you want and keep your own tools for the rest. For example, record in ShowMuse and export the recordings to edit in Premiere, or bring finished files from anywhere and use ShowMuse for editing, clips, and publishing. Every AI feature is additive and optional, there to automate a step you'd rather skip, and ignoring it changes nothing about your production workflow.
Plan with your guests
Invites, RSVPs, bios, and topic approvals in one place. Your guest helps build the outline before you record.
Record, or bring your own files
Record in the browser with up to 3 people, each on their own device and their own track, saved as it goes. Lose your connection and rejoin, the take is still there. You see what every camera is recording WHILE it records. Or drag in MP3s and MP4s from Zoom, OBS, or whatever you use today.
Edit by transcript or waveform
Delete a word, the audio goes with it. Or open the timeline for fine control. Filler and silence removal on every plan.
Clips, thumbnails, show notes
Cut clips with captions, pull thumbnails with face detection, draft the notes. One episode becomes a week of content.
Publish everywhere at once
One click puts the episode on YouTube and Buzzsprout. Or let ShowMuse host the feed itself, and Apple, Spotify and the rest pull from that. Doing your own distribution? Take the finished files and go. More hosts are coming: .
Promote on a schedule
Campaigns across Facebook, Instagram, Threads, LinkedIn, and Slack. You approve every post before it goes out.

Credits pay for actions that cost real money to run, such as recording sessions, storing media files, transcript generation, clip rendering, and pulling thumbnails automatically. Every plan comes with monthly credits and unused credits always roll over (with the option to purchase more).
Yes. Upload a finished MP4 and use ShowMuse only for distribution, clips, thumbnails, and social. Or use our editor. Most teams mix and match.
Drop the file in. ShowMuse imports MP3, MP4, and most common formats. You don't have to switch recording tools to use the rest of the platform.
You can run multiple shows on any paid plan - and a show you don't use costs nothing. Business ($139/mo, 1,400 credits) is built for actively producing across several at once. Running a big operation? Contact us - we'll size it for you.
