What they are
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.
Buzzsprout
Buzzsprout hosts podcast audio files and distributes episodes to Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and a dozen other directories from a single dashboard. It's used by solo podcasters and small teams who want reliable hosting without managing RSS feeds manually. The free plan stores only 90 days of episodes, which pushes serious creators toward a paid tier quickly. At $15 per month the entry paid plan covers most hobbyist needs.
