DeepCast Pro Rebrands to DeepCast Creator, Launches Podsites Beta, and New Investors

Press Release · Los Angeles, CA, USA · via DeepCast · · Updated

DeepCast today announced the evolution of its podcast creator platform from DeepCast Pro to DeepCast Creator, alongside the launch of new features designed to help podcasters grow their audiences and strengthen their online presence. This rebranding reflects the company’s dedication to serving creators and coincides with the beta release of Podsites, a turnkey website solution for podcasters.

“The shift to ‘DeepCast Creator’ represents our unwavering commitment to supporting podcasters at every stage of their journey,” says Lucas Dickey, CEO of DeepCast.

“By offering an ever-expanding suite of creator-focused tools at industry-leading prices—by more than 50% in many cases, we’re making professional podcast marketing and audience growth accessible to creators of all sizes. This commitment to empowering independent voices attracted investment from the Glen Nelson Center at American Public Media Group. It’s the same reason Automattic invested a couple of months ago. Empowering independent voices.”

Key Announcements Include:

  • Platform Rebranding: DeepCast Pro becomes DeepCast Creator, featuring a new website focused on practical outcomes for podcasters, including educational resources for marketing, promotion, monetization, and audience engagement.
  • Podsites Beta Launch: Podsites Beta Launch: An AI-powered website generation tool for podcasters, featuring SEO optimization, speaker-labeled transcripts, multi-platform listening options, and direct support integration. Available to all users, with enhanced features for paid subscribers.

See an example of a beta podsite now with Teatime with Miss Liz. The Creator team will be making material investments in Podsites in the weeks ahead, and many new features will be dropping shortly, such as custom pages, a YouTube channel/playlist embed, custom styling for brand ownership, and, of particular interest to many Creator customers, listener comments on episodes.

  • Enhanced Pricing Structure: New annual plans priced at $30/month reflect the platform’s expanded value, including processing for all new episodes, draft episode generation for advanced marketing purposes, plus credits for 50 back-catalog episodes. Additional processing credits available for deeper catalog coverage.

• Quote Cards & Micro-sites: Recently launched social-ready quote images with accompanying micro-sites increase discoverability and provide engaging entry points for newlisteners across platforms. The Quote Card microsites are a clear favorite of new customers to DeepCast Creator as it represents a new, bite-sized bit of material to share in social channels, blog posts, newsletters and more. Here’s an example with a quote from James Cridland of Podnews.

“Our goal is to empower creators with tools that make podcast marketing and audience growth more efficient and effective,” continues Dickey.

“One customer reported that DeepCast Creator reduced their marketing workflow from approximately 30 steps to 10, and cut the time spent from 2 hours to 15 minutes. The plan is to improve that by another 50% at least while simultaneously adding more value for the podcaster and more ways for them to market, promote, and monetize their show while engaging more with their fans.”
