Guests upload a headshot, share their story, expertise, and social handles—no login friction.

    A polished portal makes you look like a top-tier show. Guests feel valued from the first click.

    Guests, analytics, notifications, and prep materials live in one dark, focused dashboard.

Who it's for

Every show format, one prep stack

FAQ

Common questions

Do guests need to create an account?+

No. Guests open your invite link, fill one form, and submit—no password, no app download.

How does social media research work?+

When a guest adds links (e.g. Instagram, GitHub), we fetch public metadata—bio, followers, posts—and feed it into AI question generation. We never invent private data.

Can I edit AI-generated questions?+

Yes. Reorder with drag-and-drop, edit any line, delete, or generate more questions anytime from the guest detail page.

What AI model powers the questions?+

We use Anthropic Claude with fallbacks across supported models. Set CLAUDE_API_KEY and optional CLAUDE_MODEL in your environment.

Is my data secure?+

Host accounts use JWT sessions. Guest data is scoped to your host ID. Images are stored on Cloudinary when configured.

What's on the roadmap?+

Episode publishing, team workspaces, calendar sync, and listen analytics are planned—see the Roadmap section below for timelines.
