Private Audio
That Just
Plays

Listen

Make pressing play the easiest thing they do.

PodVault gives every listener a personal link. They click. The audio plays. That’s it.

  • One personal link, no login

    Tap the link, the audio plays. No portal, no password, no app to install.

  • Browser or their favourite podcast app

    Listen in the browser, or in Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Pocket Casts via the RSS link.

  • Optional new-episode email

    Get an email when there’s a new episode.

Get your link
Listener with earbuds

Replace downloads and member portals with private podcast delivery.

Listener pressing play on a private feed

One product. One private feed.

One seminar, one course, one audio product — each becomes a private feed your buyers can play in the browser or in normal podcast apps.

  • Upload, price, share

    Upload your audio, set the price, mark the feed private. Fifteen minutes.

  • Buyers pay through Stripe

    Each successful purchase gets a personal listening link.

  • One-tap playback

    They click the link and it plays in the web player immediately. Podcast app option for those who want it.

  • You know who has access

    Each purchase is a person. If someone loses their link, you resend it with one click.

Audio only. By design.

What PodVault doesn’t do is the point.

A dashboard you barely live in

Upload, price, share. That’s the seller flow. The dashboard exists; you just don’t have to camp out in it.

No apps to install

Click the link, listen. Web player works on every phone. (OK fine — you can also listen in apps if you like. Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Pocket Casts, etc.)

No automation engine, personalization rules, or sponsor tooling

That’s other platforms. PodVault delivers audio. That’s it.

No community features to moderate

No comments, no forums, no noise to manage.

Listening on the go

PodVault lives in their pocket.

People listen while driving, walking, cleaning, and commuting. Member portals don’t fit that. PodVault does.

Use Cases

Course listeners on their commute

Courses

Help students listen on the go instead of logging back into a portal. Each course becomes a private feed they can finish on their commute.

Coaching programs

Coaching programs

Turn private audio and call replays into something clients actually press play on — not another file in a folder.

Member listening at home

Memberships

Give paying members premium audio in their normal podcast app or browser — not behind a portal login they barely remember.

Seminar and conference audio recording

Seminars and conferences

Turn session recordings into a private feed attendees can keep up with. A QR on the slide, a scan, and they’re in.

Author and speaker programs

Author and speaker programs

Deliver companion teaching audio like a show, not a file handoff. Print a QR in the book; readers scan it and they’re listening.

Ministry teaching

Ministry teaching

Share paid or private teaching the way people actually listen. Public sermons and private member content can live in one place.

A dashboard, when you need it.

Listener counts, plays over time, top episodes. Glance, then close the tab.

Frequently asked questions

How do listeners actually listen?
They get a personal link. They click it and the audio plays in the browser — no app to install, no portal to log into. New episodes ping them by email. If they want it in Apple Podcasts, that’s an option too.
Do I need to charge for it?
No. PodVault works for free, email-gated, and paid audio. Connect Stripe and charge for it, collect emails to track listeners, or just share the link openly. Your choice.
How does this compare to a member portal?
Member portals make buyers log in every time they want to listen. PodVault sends them a personal link they tap once. Nobody opens a portal on their commute — PodVault lives in their pocket.
What does “private” actually mean?
Each buyer gets a unique URL — like a private Dropbox link. Only people with their personal link can listen, and you can revoke access at any time. It’s the same trust model as link-based file sharing: not bank-grade DRM, but right-sized for paid teaching, member-only content, and other audio you want to control.
Can I host both public and private feeds?
Yes. Each feed in PodVault has one of three access modes:
Public Anyone with the link can subscribe — list it in Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and the rest.
Private (Free) Listeners enter their email and get a personal access link. See who’s listening; remove access if needed.
Private (Paid) Listeners pay through Stripe before getting access.

A podcaster might run a free public show AND deliver bonus episodes to paying members, both in one account.

What analytics do I get?
It depends on the feed mode. For Private (Free or Paid) feeds, every listener has their own personal link, so you see who’s listening, when, and how often — per-person engagement, not just aggregate downloads. For Public feeds, you see downloads, geography, and which podcast apps people use — Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Pocket Casts, and most others. Two caveats: Spotify and YouTube Music don’t share listener data through RSS, so plays through those apps don’t show up in PodVault. You’d check their own creator dashboards for those numbers.

Upload, price, share. Your first feed takes about 15 minutes.
