    Your podcast, with the platform behind it that podcasts deserve.

    This page describes a feature that's in active development. Some of the workflows you read about are live today; others will roll out over the coming weeks. Sign up free and we'll let you know as each piece ships.

    Most podcasts run on hosting tools that handle the file and almost nothing else. Distribution is your problem. Transcripts are a separate tool. Monetization is bolted on. The community around the show lives somewhere else entirely.

    lernaura hosts the podcast and the business around it. Same platform as your courses, community and newsletter, with the AI pipeline doing the work behind every episode upload.


    Host and distribute

    Episode hosting. Upload audio episodes. Files are stored and served from EU-resident object storage with CDN distribution. We host the file so you don't have to.

    Public RSS. Your show distributes to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Pocket Casts, Overcast, and every other client that reads standard RSS. lernaura handles the feed; you submit once.

    Private feeds. Paid subscribers get a private RSS feed that works in their existing podcast app of choice — no separate lernaura app required. Subscriber-only episodes deliver natively to their pocket.

    Show notes and chapters. Rich show notes, chapter markers, timestamped links, embedded media. SEO-optimised episode pages.


    The AI pipeline behind every upload

    Drop an episode file. Within minutes:

    Full transcript (Gladia, France, no training on your content). Edit if you want, ship if you don't.

    Translations into your target languages. Multi-language transcripts ship alongside the audio for searchability.

    Show notes drafted automatically from the transcript, ready to review and publish.

    Chapter markers suggested based on conversational structure.

    The episode enters your content catalog — searchable for members, repurposable across your courses and newsletter.

    The upload is the work. Everything else is the platform. More on the AI content pipeline.


    Monetize

    Paid subscriptions. Give paying subscribers a unique private RSS feed that includes premium episodes alongside the free ones.

    Merchant of record. lernaura is the seller on every transaction. Card and bank processing (the Stripe equivalent — included in the 5% + €0.50, not billed separately), EU VAT, US sales tax in all 50 states, refunds, chargebacks, multi-currency pricing — all handled. More on the merchant-of-record approach.


    Grow

    Search-discoverable episodes. Each episode gets an indexed transcript, SEO-structured page, and proper schema markup. The episode page does the SEO work most podcast platforms don't.


    License your podcast to companies

    Most podcast platforms haven't thought about B2B at all. lernaura's B2B per-seat licensing applies cleanly here:

    • A licensee company pays lernaura for N seat licenses to your back-catalog and ongoing episodes.
    • We're the merchant on record (we invoice, handle EU VAT, take 5% + €0.50).
    • The licensee gets their own delegated admin: they self-manage users, rebrand the listening experience their team gets, configure usage policy (downloads, expiry, sharing rules), and pull usage analytics for L&D reporting. You stay out of all of it.
    • Their team gets private feeds through their own lernaura accounts.
    • Per-seat revenue back to you monthly.

    The licensee isn't buying lernaura SaaS — they're licensing your show. Independent podcasters now have a recurring B2B revenue path that podcast hosts (Acast, Libsyn, Buzzsprout, Spotify-for-Podcasters) don't offer, with the licensee admin layer that makes the deal feel enterprise-grade. More on B2B licensing.


    Built for the EU

    Podcasting on Spotify, Apple, or US-based hosts means US-resident audio files and US-resident metadata. lernaura runs on Scaleway, Scalingo, api.video EU, with AI inference on Mistral and Gladia (both France). DPA embedded in our Terms of Use, accepted at signup, applies to every plan including the free tier. More on the European hosting posture.


    Coming from another podcast host?

    Paste your existing host's RSS feed in your show settings. We pull in episodes and show notes; audio enclosures keep pointing at your current host so listeners don't see broken links. Re-run the import any time — episodes are deduped by GUID.

    Subscriber lists, payment methods and RSS redirects aren't migrated. Configure paid subscribers fresh on lernaura via the private-feed admin (each gets a unique RSS URL), and direct your existing audience to the new feed URL through your usual channels.


    Pricing

    5% + €0.50 when subscribers pay. No monthly hosting fee. No per-episode upload cap. No bandwidth tier. Included: hosting, transcription, translation, show-note generation, RSS, paid subscriber feeds, AI marketing, B2B licensing. See pricing.

    Make it. Keep it.

    The whole back office of cross-border selling — tax, payments, collection, FX, disputes — handled by lernaura. One integration, one clean payout, EU-owned end to end. Creators: the free platform is waiting.
    For sellers based in the EU/EEA, selling to buyers across Europe and North America — more countries on both sides soon.
