The problem

Built for creators, not engineers

  1. Show notes take longer than the editWriting a good episode description, extracting key quotes, adding timestamps, formatting for SEO — it's a part-time job that comes at the end of an already long workflow.
  2. Distribution is fragmentedUploading to a hosting platform, submitting to directories, waiting for approval, checking that the episode appeared correctly on each platform — repeated every single week.
  3. RSS feeds are invisible but criticalOne misconfigured RSS feed means your episode disappears from Spotify or Apple Podcasts entirely. Most creators don't realise there's a problem until listeners tell them.
  4. Analytics are scattered across platformsSpotify for Podcasters, Apple Podcasts Connect, YouTube Studio — each has its own interface and its own definition of a "play". Comparing them is a spreadsheet exercise.

How it works

Three steps to get started

Step 01

Finish your edit — show notes are already drafted

As you edit, Hilite reads your transcript and drafts a show notes summary, key moments list, and chapter timestamps. By the time you finish editing, publishing prep is mostly done.

Step 02

Review, edit, and confirm your episode details

Check the title, show notes, and chapter markers. Edit anything that needs adjusting. Add your episode art. Set your publish date — immediately or scheduled.

Step 03

Publish your episode and update the RSS feed

Publish immediately or schedule your episode in Hilite. The RSS feed updates for connected podcast directories. Each directory controls when it checks the feed and displays the episode.
