What they are

Spreaker

Spreaker is a podcast hosting and live-streaming platform used by independent creators and radio broadcasters to publish, distribute, and earn from audio content. It combines real-time broadcasting with on-demand hosting and connects episodes to major directories like Spotify and Apple Podcasts. The integrated ad marketplace is a genuine draw for monetization, though the free tier is fairly limited in storage and upload hours.

SquadCast

SquadCast is a browser-based remote recording platform that captures separate, high-quality audio and video tracks from each participant locally, then uploads them progressively to the cloud. Podcasters and video creators use it to record remote interviews without the audio degradation of Zoom or phone calls. The progressive upload feature protects recordings from connection drops, which is a genuine differentiator, though storage limits on lower tiers can be a friction point for high-volume producers.
