The Complete Podcaster Toolkit
Every tool a podcaster needs. None of the hosting hassle.

Show Core
Early Access & Show Notes
Give your inner circle an episode first on a private link, and publish your show notes as posts that you can email to your list in one click.

Direct Sales, Zero Cut

FOR PODCASTERS · SHOW CORE
Give your inner circle the episode first.

YOUR HOME ONLINE · WEBSITE
A bio link gets you found. A website gets you taken seriously.
When a brand wants to work with you, a podcast wants to book you or a fan wants to know who you are, they search your name. Give them a real site: your story, your work, your contact, your newsletter, on a domain that is yours. Every layout is a starting point, so change it until it looks like you. Pick one, drag things where you want them, publish. No code and no agency.

SELL DIRECT · YOUR PAYMENT LINK
Sell direct. Keep every dollar.
Create a payment link with the provider you already use, such as Stripe Payment Links, PayPal, Gumroad or Ko-fi, and attach it to a button on your site, a bio link or a blog post. The buyer pays you directly, and PenCanvas never takes a cut.
One button or link, anywhere: your site, a post or your bio page
A price badge on bio links and a click count on every one, so you see what gets tapped
Store and retailer links for anywhere else you already sell
YOUR VOICE · NEWSLETTER
The only channel where every one of your people hears from you.
On social, a fraction of your followers see any post. In an inbox, it is one to one. Publish your newest work, your launch, your weekly letter straight to the people who asked for it, from your own address. They confirm by email, so the list is real, and it is yours to export any day. Your first few thousand sends are included in every plan.
From your name, not a platform's
Send from you@yourdomain.com once your domain is verified. Tag and segment subscribers, schedule a send, import the list you already have from a CSV.
Welcome them while you sleep
Automations start when someone subscribes or gets a tag: a welcome series, a delay, a condition, the next email. A ready-made welcome sequence is included to start from.
YOUR FRONT DOOR · BIO LINK
One short link for everything you are.
You get one link in your bio. Make it pencanvas.com/you: your latest drop at the top, your site, your newsletter box, your free download, your socials, your contact form. Every tap is counted, so you finally know what your audience actually clicks when they land.
Everything important, one tap away
Link cards, a featured block for what matters most this week, a newsletter sign-up, a lead magnet, polls, scheduled links that appear on launch day and disappear after, and a QR code for the real world.
Clicks, not guesses
A click count beside every link and a view count on the page, so you can see which network sends people and what they do next.
Included in every plan•Themes that match your site
YOUR ASSETS · MEDIA LIBRARY
Upload it once. Use it on your site, your posts, your emails and your bio.
Your brand lives in your images: the headshot, the logo, the thumbnail, the behind-the-scenes photo. Keep them in one library that every part of PenCanvas can reach, instead of re-uploading the same file to five apps and hunting through camera rolls when a post is due. Storage is included on every plan.
Folders, search, a safety net
Photos, clips, logos, covers and downloads in one library with folders, search, a trash you can restore from and a storage meter.
Crop and resize in place
Fix a photo before you use it. Smaller preview versions are generated for you, so pages stay fast.
Focal point
Mark the part of a photo that matters and every banner, card and thumbnail crops around it.
Pull from a URL or Unsplash
Paste an image address, or search Unsplash from inside the library, and it is yours to use.
YOUR VISIBILITY · BLOG & ARTICLES
A post on Instagram lasts a day. A post on your site gets found for years.
The behind-the-scenes story, the how-I-made-it breakdown, the opinion your audience keeps asking for: write it once on your own site, where Google can find it and nobody can bury it. Share the link everywhere, email it to your subscribers in one click, and watch it keep bringing new people in long after the feed has moved on.
Built to be found
A meta title, description, canonical URL and social preview image for every post, at a clean address on your own domain. The things that make search engines and link previews work, without a plugin.
Public, subscribers-only, or scheduled
Organise with categories and tags, keep a post for subscribers only, schedule it for launch day, keep every revision, and moderate the comments yourself.
Email any post to your list•No separate blog subscription
YOUR NUMBERS · ANALYTICS
See which post, which network and which link actually brought people to you.
Likes tell you what the algorithm liked. Your own numbers tell you what your audience did next: which network sent them to your site, which page they read, which bio link they tapped, who opened the newsletter and clicked. All of it in one panel you can open from anywhere, so you double down on what works instead of guessing.
Socials, site and list, side by side
Visits, top pages, referrers, countries and devices for your site; clicks on every bio link; opens and clicks for every email; the results of every scheduled post.
Respectful of your audience
No cookies, no ad trackers, no banner to click away. Visitors are counted with a hash that changes every day, so you get the numbers without selling your people.

BUILT TO OUTLAST ANY PLATFORM
You own it. All of it.
Platforms come and go. A brand built on an address you own, with a list you can export, does not.
Your name on the door
Start on yourname.pencanvas.com today. On the Creator and Studio plans, point yourname.com at it by adding the DNS records we show you; the SSL certificate is issued automatically.
Leave any time, with your audience
Export your subscriber list as a CSV whenever you like. Your audience belongs to you, and it never sits behind a subscription lock.
Fast from anywhere
Your media is stored on Cloudflare R2 and your pages are served through a global CDN, so a visitor in Lagos or Lisbon gets the same quick load as one next door.
A bad edit is never final
Pages and posts save automatically and keep revisions you can restore, so you can experiment with your site without fear.
FOR EVERY CREATOR
Your audience is already out there. Give them somewhere to land.

Post to every network. Reply to the ones that talk back.
Write a post once, adjust it per network and schedule it to 11 networks, from Instagram and TikTok to Bluesky and Telegram. Comments and DMs from the networks that share them arrive in a single inbox, and keyword rules answer the repeat questions while you make the next thing.
One draft, per-network tweaks, a live preview and a calendar
6 networks share comments and 4 share DMs
"Link?" in a comment can send the link by DM on Instagram and Facebook
What works where
Every network can be scheduled to. Replies depend on what each network lets other apps do.
Instagram needs a Professional account. Meta allows one private reply per comment within seven days, and DMs within 24 hours of the person's last message. YouTube, Bluesky and Mastodon are checked every few minutes rather than pushed live.
