Ship every episode. On time. On course. No drift.
Starting a podcast is easy. Shipping one every week is where shows break down. Five tools, a dozen handoffs, a deadline that never moves. Shipcast keeps episodes moving from recorded to live.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about what Shipcast does, and what it deliberately does not.
How is this different from Buzzsprout or Acast analytics?
Hosting platforms measure your audience: downloads, listener geography, listening apps. Shipcast measures your production: cadence consistency, metadata quality, feed health, asset completion, and deadline risk. Buzzsprout tells you who listened. Shipcast tells you whether the next episode will ship on time. They're complementary.
Do I need to switch hosting platforms?
No. Shipcast reads your public RSS feed and connects to your existing tools. It works alongside Buzzsprout, Transistor, Captivate, Podbean, Acast, or any other host.
Is Pulse Check really free?
Yes. Pulse Check grades any podcast from its public RSS feed. No account required, no credit card, no trial that expires. The paid product adds ongoing production tracking, risk alerts, and team features.
Does Shipcast edit audio or generate content?
No. Descript edits your audio. Castmagic generates your show notes. Opus Clip cuts your clips. Shipcast tracks whether all of those things got done and alerts you when they haven't. We complement your tools, never compete with them.
