Since our founding in 2015, our mission has been to empower podcasters on their journey towards growth and monetization. Zencastr started as the first platform to offer high-quality remote audio recording and has evolved into an all-in-one podcast creation hub.

From the beginning, our free Hobbyist plan has played an important role in supporting those who are new or in the early stages of podcasting. Our dedication to providing free access to our platform over the years has allowed creators like you to enjoy an expanding range of services, now encompassing audio and video recording, hosting, and monetization, all at no cost.

However, as we wholeheartedly pursue our mission, it has become increasingly necessary to allocate our resources to deliver enhanced features that ensure your success as podcasters. In light of this, we have had to make the tough decision to discontinue access to recording features on the Hobbyist plan.

Effective November 16, 2023, recording capabilities will no longer be available on the Hobbyist plan, which will transition to a hosting-only plan. Please click here for details on how Hobbyist will change over the next 30 days.

We are committed to being here for our community, and to achieve this, we must ensure our long-term viability and sustainability. While recording features will no longer be available on the Hobbyist plan, please rest assured that all features, including recording, post-production, hosting, monetization, mobile recording, and AI clipping, continue to be accessible through our paid plans.

We genuinely hope you’ll continue this journey of growth and innovation with us and consider switching to one of our paid plans. We understand that change can be challenging, so to help with this transition, we’re offering our best discount yet on our paid plans.

Your support means the world to us, and our community remains at the heart of our mission.

Thank you for being an integral part of Zencastr. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.

Josh
