Overview

Podhero is a subscription service that automatically divides a user's $5.99 monthly payment and shares it with the podcasts they choose. The product charges $5.99/month, offers a one-month free trial, claims no platform fees, and splits subscriber payments among supported shows. Podhero works with over 1,000,000 podcasts across 30+ countries and offers apps on iOS and Android. The company was founded in 2016 by Pete Curley and Garret Heaton (the HipChat founders) and officially launched in June 2020 from San Francisco. Its stated mission is to help podcast creators get paid, noting that 97% of podcasts currently make no money. Financially, Podhero has raised a $4 million seed round led by True Ventures.
