What they are

Beehiiv

Newsletter platform with built-in growth tools: paid recommendation network, ad marketplace, native referral programs, and built-in monetisation. Founded by ex-Morning Brew operators.

Podcastle

Podcastle, recently rebranded as Async, is a browser-based audio and video production platform aimed at podcasters and solo creators. It handles remote recording, AI-powered noise removal, transcription-based editing, and voice cloning in one workspace. The free tier covers basic recording but caps exports and AI features. Paid plans start around $11.99 per month, making it competitive with dedicated tools like Descript for audio-first workflows.
