PodView turns your podcast into a complete, automatically updated website built from your RSS feed or YouTube channel. Episodes stay synchronized automatically, with audio or video playback, transcripts, chapters and built-in SEO. Grow an audience you own through email, reviews and voicemail, understand what listeners finish or skip, and control how AI assistants describe and cite your show.

Hi Product Hunt 👋 We built PodView because podcasts are distributed everywhere, but the relationship with the audience usually belongs to someone else. Spotify, Apple Podcasts and YouTube are great places to listen, but they give creators limited control over discovery, branding and the people who engage with their work. Meanwhile, building and maintaining a proper podcast website still involves too much manual work. So we built PodView as the owned home for a podcast. Enter your show name, paste an RSS feed, or add a YouTube channel, and PodView generates the complete website automatically. You can preview the actual site before creating an account: no generic demo and no credit card. From there, PodView keeps new episodes, artwork and show information synchronized automatically. It supports audio and video episodes, transcripts, clickable chapters, searchable episode archives, custom domains and podcast-specific themes. But we wanted to go beyond simply publishing episode pages. PodView helps turn anonymous listeners into an audience creators can reach again through email signup, reviews, contact forms, lead magnets and voicemail. It also shows website plays, completion and drop-off, so creators can understand what people actually listen to rather than seeing only a download count. One of the areas we are most excited about is AI discovery. AI assistants already summarize podcasts, recommend episodes and reuse ideas from them. PodView creates clean, machine-readable versions of the show and lets creators guide how assistants describe their podcast, which episodes they cite and which topics or takeaways they associate with it. And because the website lives on your domain and your subscriber and guest data can be exported, you are not locked into PodView. PodView started as a simple RSS-to-website tool. It has evolved into something closer to an audience and discovery layer for podcasts, while staying easy enough to launch in minutes. We’d love your feedback: - Does the generated site feel like a real home for the show? - And which matters more to you: owning the audience, understanding listening behavior, or improving discovery in search and AI? Thanks for checking it out! Francesco

A "best of" or curated highlights page would be really useful — like auto-generating a page of the top episodes based on listen-through rate or review sentiment. Would help new visitors find the strongest stuff right away instead of scrolling through 200 back episodes.

Do podcasts still need their own websites?

Most podcast discovery and listening now happens inside Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and other platforms. That raises a question: does a podcast still need its own website?

My view is that a website gives creators control over their brand, search visibility, audience relationships, transcripts, guest pages, email capture, and content that listening apps cannot support very well.

We re building PodView around that idea, but I d love to hear the counterargument too.

What is missing from today’s podcast website builders?

We ve been working on PodView, a tool that creates a complete podcast website from an RSS feed or YouTube channel.

The basic automation is straightforward. The harder question is deciding what a podcast website should become after the initial site has been generated.
