About Simplecast
Public changelog has gone quiet since early 2023; visible roadmap is dormant.
Simplecast is a podcast hosting platform with a feature surface centered on RSS distribution, Mae dynamic audio insertion, audience analytics, and team management. The last visible release notes entry is January 2023, with the bulk of recent changes covering security (2FA), content windowing (schedule-to-unpublish, additional RSS feeds), and ad-tooling improvements. Nothing in the public changelog speaks to the AI/transcription/video shifts reshaping the rest of the podcast tooling category.
