Who is ShowMuse

I'm Brian. I still record every week.

I've been running a podcast for years. 260+ episodes, real guests, real deadlines. The recording was never the hard part. The hard part was the four hours afterward, bouncing between an editor, a thumbnail tool, a scheduler, and five browser tabs.

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

How it works

One place.
From first invite to last post.

You don't have to use all of it. Record with ShowMuse or upload your finished files.

The planning tab: episode form with guests and outline, guest comment thread open beside it.
01

Plan with your guests

Invites, RSVPs, bios, and topic approvals in one place. Your guest helps build the outline before you record.

The recording studio: shared screen with the host on camera and the recording controls below.
02

Record, or bring your own files

Record in the browser with each guest on their own track. Or drag in MP3s and MP4s from other providers, Zoom, or OBS.

The editor: transcript on the left, waveform timeline underneath, video preview beside it.
03

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.

A clip being cut: description and tags on the left, render settings with clip kit and framing on the right.
04

Clips, thumbnails, show notes

Cut clips with captions, pull thumbnails with face detection, draft the notes. One episode becomes a week of content.

The distribution tab: YouTube and Buzzsprout both published, with the Publish to YouTube form open.
05

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: .

A seven-day promotion campaign: scheduled LinkedIn posts awaiting approval, day by day.
06

Promote on a schedule

Campaigns across Facebook, Instagram, Threads, LinkedIn, and Slack. You approve every post before it goes out.
