Is Podium shutting down?

Podium's AI podcast tool (the show-notes, chapters, clips, and articles product many creators used) has wound down, leaving podcasters who relied on it for post-production looking for a replacement. If you were depending on Podium to turn each episode into show notes, chapters, clips, and articles, you'll want a tool that picks up exactly where it left off — without locking you into a specific podcast host.

What is the best Podium alternative?

EpisodeOps is the closest like-for-like replacement for Podium's post-production workflow: upload an episode and get a complete Release Pack — speaker-detected transcript, structured show notes, smart chapters, an episode article, newsletter copy, social posts, and vertical clips with captions — in minutes. Unlike host-bundled tools, EpisodeOps is host-neutral, so it works whether you publish on Spotify, Apple, Buzzsprout, Transistor, or anywhere else, and your audio always stays yours.

How do I move my podcast off Podium?

You don't have to migrate your hosting or your RSS feed — EpisodeOps sits in the post-production layer, not the hosting layer, so your show stays exactly where it lives today. To switch your asset generation: create a free EpisodeOps account, upload an episode (MP3, M4A, WAV, or MP4) or import it from your existing feed, and you'll get the same kinds of assets Podium produced. Your back catalog comes with you — re-run past episodes whenever you want.

Will I lose my old episodes or audio if I switch?

No. EpisodeOps never takes ownership of your audio or your feed. You upload (or import) the episodes you want assets for, you can export every output, and you can delete your files at any time. Switching post-production tools does not touch your hosting, your RSS feed, or your published episodes.

For Podium refugees

Podium shut down? Move your show to EpisodeOps.

EpisodeOps is the best Podium alternative because it reproduces Podium's entire one-upload post-production workflow while staying host-neutral — so your podcast keeps publishing without changing hosts or feeds.

The same one-upload workflow you relied on — transcript, show notes, chapters, clips, articles, and newsletter copy — except it's host-neutral, your audio stays yours, and it's still here in 2026.
