What is "Episode Retention"?
Episode retention is how long your podcast episodes stay available for public download after they're created.
Episodes automatically removed after 2 weeks. Good for topical or news content that expires quickly.
Episodes available for 3 months. Perfect for most radio shows with regular schedules.
A full year of episode history. Build a substantial show archive for your station.
Note: The 60-day recording archive is separate — all plans keep your raw stream recordings for 60 days regardless of retention tier.
Licensing & content
AutoPod is automation tooling — you decide what gets delivered and you’re responsible for the appropriate licences.
You choose what’s public
Deliver talk shows, keep music shows private, or archive everything without making anything publicly available. Per-show control over what gets distributed.
Music licensing is yours
On-demand distribution typically requires different licences to live broadcasting. Check with your local collecting societies (e.g. PRS/PPL in the UK).
Your content stays yours
We’re infrastructure, not a platform. We don’t claim rights, we don’t monetise your content, and you can delete anything at any time.
If you don’t have podcast music licences, you have options:
Deliver talk shows only • Use royalty-free music • Keep music shows private for presenter access • Use AutoPod’s Mixcloud integration (Mixcloud holds its own music licences) • Get podcast licences and deliver everything
