For Podcasters & Creators

One link that plays your show immediately.

Add your show link to episode descriptions or your website. Listeners jump straight into Shows & Stories – no app store detour, no sign-up, with full player capability.

Benefits

Why the show link turns listeners into subscribers.

Listen instantly without an account

Listeners do not need to register to listen. One click starts playback, chapters and transcripts right in the browser.

Seamless intent handover upon sign-up

When listeners decide to subscribe or bookmark episodes, they create a trial account. Shows & Stories completes the action automatically while audio keeps playing without interruption.

Permanent guest tier

Listening position, subscriptions up to 10 shows, playback speed and settings remain safely stored locally in the browser (IndexedDB and LocalStorage).

Privacy-first analytics

Counters for views, app launches, registrations, and subscriptions run completely anonymous and aggregated. No cookies, no fingerprinting, no IP tracking.

Preview

How the public preview card looks to listeners.

Behind every show link is a lightweight preview page with your cover art, description, and three latest episodes. Messengers like Signal or WhatsApp display cover art and title as a clean rich preview.
