Everything new in Podpage, newest first. Every entry is live for customers today.
If you run a Network account with multiple shows, your show list now shows episode count, when each show last synced, and when it was added — not just the podcast name and artwork — so you can see each show's status and your newest additions at a glance.
The network navigation is also more focused: a direct Shows link sits up top, and the menu shows only the settings that apply to a network.
Podpage lets you connect an AI agent — Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and others — directly to your podcast site, so it can read and, with your approval, edit your content on your behalf. That connection was previously limited to Elite. It's now available on every plan.
Look for MCP under the AI Agents section of your dashboard to get started.
Turn on Add Categories and Podpage reads each new episode the moment it imports, then places it into the categories you've already set up — the same way you'd tag it by hand, minus the work. Existing category assignments are never touched, and you can always move an episode yourself afterward.
Find it under Categories in your dashboard. Available on Elite.
If your listeners read Lithuanian, your Podpage site can now speak to them in it. Labels like "Show Notes," the podcast player picker, and other on-site text switch over when Lithuanian is selected as your site's language, translated and reviewed for natural, idiomatic phrasing rather than a literal machine translation.
Set it under Settings → Language.
Design settings picked up a round of new controls: a parallax effect for your header banner, a drop shadow behind your hero text for readability over images, softer or bolder shadows on your episode cards, a small badge showing the episode number on cards, a color overlay with a play icon when someone hovers over an episode image, decorative styles and dividers for your section titles, and subtle entrance and scroll animations for your homepage.
Every option is off or set to a plain default unless you turn it on, so nothing changes on your site until you go looking for it. Find them in Design → Customize Site, spread across the Cards, Sections, and Animations groups.
The Podpage dashboard now supports light, dark, and system themes for everyone. Set it to follow your computer's setting automatically, or pick light or dark yourself.
Find the toggle in your account menu.
Automatically matching your YouTube uploads to the right episode is no longer limited to Elite — it's now included on Pro. Guest attachment and episode alerts remain Elite features.
Podpage's YouTube sync page also got easier to work with this month: it shows which video is matched to which episode side-by-side, flags videos that fall out of your playlist, and lets you reassign a match without leaving the page. "Check Now" can also run a full re-scan of your channel, including older videos.
When you start a preview from your podcast's RSS feed, a loading screen with a progress bar now appears instantly while Podpage pulls in your episodes, so you can watch your site come together.
Podpage now works with Claude, Codex, and other AI assistants that support MCP (Model Context Protocol). Once connected, you can ask your assistant to update episode details, write pages and blog posts, or change settings — your existing site and dashboard stay exactly the same.
Available on Elite. Connect from Settings → Agent MCP, sign in to approve access, and you're in control of exactly what it can touch.
Podpage can now look at your entire back catalog, propose a set of categories that actually fit your show, and file every episode into one — a job that used to mean tagging episodes by hand one at a time.
Review the suggested categories and descriptions before anything is applied, and adjust as you go. Find it under Categories → Auto-categorize. Want new episodes sorted automatically going forward? Turn on Add Categories in Autopilot.
If you run a Heartbeat community alongside your podcast, new episodes now post themselves to a channel you choose the moment they're imported — the same way Podpage already auto-posts to Discord and Slack.
Course and event syncing also picked up cover images and categories, so what you see in Podpage now matches what's in Heartbeat.
Podpage can now generate a full written transcript for every new episode automatically, with speakers identified — no need to type it up yourself or pay a transcription service. Review each transcript and make edits before it goes live, or let Podpage publish them for you automatically.
Available on Elite. Turn it on from the episode editor, where you'll also see when a transcript is ready to review.
You can now set your podcast's timezone, and every date on your site and in your dashboard — episode publish dates, blog posts, reviews — follows it.
Find it under Settings → Advanced Settings.
When a listener leaves you a voicemail, the notification email now includes a text transcript right alongside the audio — no need to find headphones to know what they said.
Existing voicemails are being transcribed in the background too, so your archive fills in automatically.
Your site's review page now has a direct button inviting listeners to leave you a review, instead of just showing the reviews you've already collected.
It's a small nudge that makes it easier for happy listeners to actually follow through.
Your dashboard now gives you an early warning about billing. If your card on file is expiring soon, you'll see a yellow banner; if a payment didn't go through, you'll see a red one. Both link straight to updating your payment method, so keeping your site running takes a click or two.
Your site's sitemap — the file that tells Google what to index — now automatically includes your videos, store, events, memberships, newsletter signup, podcast roll, and more, so every page you've built has a chance to show up in search.
Nothing to turn on — this updates automatically for every podcast site.
Podpage has partnered with the School of Podcasting, run by Dave Jackson — a Podcast Hall of Fame member with over 20 years of experience — to bring structured, step-by-step courses on launching, growing, and monetizing a podcast straight into your account.
Find it under Learn → School of Podcasting. If you're already a School of Podcasting member, your courses show up automatically; if not, you'll see how to join, including a discount for Podpage customers.
A few small improvements that add up:
Podpage's help center now lives at podpage.com/support — searchable, organized by category, and built to actually find the article you need instead of guessing at keywords. It replaces the old third-party help widget.
Get there from Help in the dashboard or the "Support" link in your site's footer. Answers you find there link straight back to the exact dashboard page they're describing, so you don't have to go hunting for the setting yourself.
