Let's Make A Podcast

Let's Make A Podcast is a web marketplace for arranging podcast appearances, with tools for both show hosts and prospective guests. It is best suited to people who want discovery and booking workflows in one place, rather than a paid service that sends pitches for them.

Overview

The service brings show discovery, guest profiles, pitching, messaging and scheduling into a shared marketplace. Guests can present their expertise in a one-sheet, while hosts can describe their show and browse profiles. That two-sided approach makes it useful when both parties want to handle the booking conversation directly.

Discovery has a practical focus: users can filter shows by niche, and listings are checked for ongoing publication and the host's stated pitching preferences. A pitch draft can reference a recent episode when the show's feed includes one. The pitch still goes out through the guest's own inbox, so this is a workflow aid, not a managed outreach service.

Key features

Profiles and discovery

Guest one-sheets combine topics, biography, photo and past episodes, giving hosts a concise way to assess a potential guest. Show pages and niche filters help guests narrow the search. The stated checks on show activity and pitching preferences can make targeting more relevant than approaching an undifferentiated list.

Pitch pipeline and host workflow

Guests can track pitches in a pipeline and get an emailed follow-up draft when a pitch goes quiet. Hosts can browse one-sheets, invite and message guests, then schedule in the same thread. These tools suit users who want to manage relationships themselves; they do not remove the need to write, send and follow through on outreach.

Free tools and privacy

Some tools work without an account, and typed content is not saved unless a one-sheet is published. The service says it does not sell personal information and uses access controls to restrict member accounts and private messages to the people involved. It collects account and profile details, marketplace activity, usage and device data, and cookies or local storage. Its privacy policy names Google sign-in, Firebase, Vercel, Google Analytics and Resend among its operating services. The service is intended for adults aged 18 and over.

Pricing

The Free plan costs nothing, billed always. It includes a host or guest profile, show and guest browsing, pitches and invitations, in-app messaging, calendar-invite scheduling, and public one-sheet and show pages. That is a broad starting set for users willing to run their own booking process.

Guest Pro is planned at $1,929 a month and is marked coming soon. Its stated package adds unlimited pitches, priority placement, one-sheet analytics, saved pitch templates and a featured guest badge. The AI Booking Concierge is planned at $4,979 a month and is also coming soon; it is described as 20–40 personalized pitches a month, AI show research, user approval of every pitch, and managed replies and scheduling, with cancellation anytime. These paid offerings are not yet available, so the current choice is the free plan rather than an active paid tier. The privacy policy says the service does not process payments today; no trial is offered.

Platforms

Let's Make A Podcast is available on the web.

Who it's for

It is a sensible fit for independent guests who want to build a public profile, find relevant shows and keep outreach organized, and for hosts who want to browse prospective guests and coordinate bookings. It is less suitable for people who need a service to send pitches from their behalf today, or for teams that require a live paid plan with defined commercial terms.

Pros and cons

• Pros: One marketplace supports both guest and host workflows, so discovery can lead directly into messaging and scheduling.
• Pros: Show filters, activity checks and stated pitch preferences help guests focus their outreach.
• Pros: The free plan includes public pages, messaging and calendar-invite scheduling, not just directory access.
• Cons: Guests must send pitches from their own inbox; the pipeline and follow-up draft do not automate sending.
• Cons: The two paid plans are coming soon, leaving users who want their promised analytics, priority placement or concierge service without an available upgrade.

Alternatives

Podcast Guest Booking Software is the broader category to browse when you want to compare booking tools.

Choose Guestio if you want Android or iOS access as well as web, or if a free plan capped at five pitches a month suits your booking volume. PodcastGuests.com is a simpler option if a twice-weekly newsletter of guest opportunities is enough; its paid Basic plan is $20 a month for one category, one website link and a directory profile.

show.fm is worth considering when the need is broader show and episode operations, with its free plan including one show, two episodes a month and one staff seat. Airlist may suit a host who wants a defined free pipeline for up to 15 guests, with follow-up reminders, an episode tracker and a public booking page. Codie Dog is an alternative with a free plan and no premium tiers or feature limits.

Guest.Market offers basic services free during its public beta. GuestLoop may fit guests looking for an expert profile, discovery feed and booking management with unlimited applications on its free plan. Pitchguest is a more quota-based option: its free plan includes three guest research runs and three outreach emails per month, plus a five-guest pipeline.

Verdict

Choose Let's Make A Podcast if you want a free, web-based place to present a guest profile or find guests and manage the booking conversation through scheduling. Its strongest case is the joined-up workflow for both sides of a booking. Look elsewhere if you need outreach sent for you or a paid tier you can use now; the concierge and pro plans remain future offerings.
