Stop editing episodes before the invoice clears
Present your podcast editing packages as professional tiers. Hosts pick a plan, pay upfront, and you edit knowing the money is handled.

Sound familiar?
Hosts expect full production for a basic edit price
They say 'I need my podcast edited.' You quote for audio cleanup. Then they want intro/outro music, show notes, a transcript, and audiogram clips for social. The 'basic edit' is now full production.
Weekly episodes with inconsistent payment
You edit every Tuesday like clockwork. But the host pays when they remember. Some months you get two payments at once, other months you chase an invoice while still editing the next episode.
Each host records differently
One host sends a clean Riverside recording. Another sends a voice memo from their car. The cleanup time varies wildly but your rate is the same. You eat the difference on bad audio.
The solution
How SendScope helps
Podcast packages from basic to full production
Offer Audio Cleanup, Standard Edit, and Full Production as tiers. Each specifies what's included -- noise removal, leveling, music, show notes, transcripts, audiograms -- so 'editing' has a clear definition.
Per-episode or monthly pricing
Structure tiers per episode or as a monthly package for weekly shows. Hosts see exactly what they're paying and what they get. No surprises.
Payment before you open Descript
Hosts approve and pay through Stripe before you start editing. Weekly consistency from them matches weekly consistency from you.
Clean invoices for podcast expenses
Auto-generated invoices help hosts track podcast production costs as business expenses. Professional documentation without extra work from you.
How it works
Three steps to getting paid
Create your deal page
Set up your podcast editing tiers. Define what each includes -- audio cleanup, mixing, music beds, show notes, transcription, social clips -- and set turnaround times.
Share with podcast hosts
Send one link to prospective clients. They see your packages laid out professionally instead of negotiating details over email or Twitter DMs.
Get paid and start editing
The host picks a tier and pays. You download the raw audio, open your DAW, and start editing with payment confirmed.
