Private Podcast Hosting
Your most important updates shouldn't get lost in an inbox
You wrote the memo. You sent the deck. You booked the all-hands, and half the team watched it on mute. Resonate's private podcast platform puts your message in the podcast app people already open on their commute, on a feed only the people you invite can hear.
Hosting software for internal and members-only shows. Bring your own episodes, or let our team make them.

The Real Problem
The message was fine. The channel was the problem.
Email gets skimmed. Recorded meetings get saved for later, and later never comes. Training videos need a screen and a quiet room.
Audio doesn't. People listen while they drive, walk, or do the dishes. That's time your other channels can't reach.
The catch is privacy. A normal podcast is built to be found by anyone. Yours needs to reach the right people and stay out of public apps. That's what private podcast hosting is for.
Who It's For
One private feed, a lot of ways to use it.
Onboarding and training
New hires hear the same welcome every time. Sales teams learn the pitch from the people who close it.
Members, students, and paid courses
Lectures, member content, and paywalled shows, delivered only to the people who signed up.
Access Control
Choose how private your podcast needs to be.
More privacy usually means more steps for the listener. Pick the trade-off that fits your content.
Unique RSS feed
Each listener gets their own feed by email and listens in their usual podcast app. Remove one person and only their feed stops working.
Best for: Company updates and anything you'd hate to see forwarded.
Private RSS feed
One shared feed for everyone, kept out of public directories like Apple, Spotify, and Amazon. Simple to roll out to a large group.
Best for: Low-risk content where reach matters more than lockdown.
Private embed player
No RSS feed at all. Episodes play only inside a player you place on your intranet, LMS, or member portal.
Best for: Training that already lives behind your login.
What's Included
Private podcast hosting with the controls IT asks about.
01
Access tied to the tools you use
Access that follows the org chart.
Invite listeners by email or let them sign in through Slack. When someone leaves, their access ends with their account, even after episodes are published.
02
Analytics
Know it landed.
Downloads, subscribers, listening apps, and locations in one dashboard, plus detailed stats from the embed player.
03
Subscribers API
Let your systems do the inviting.
Developers can manage subscribers through the API, so access can follow your HR or member records.
04
Unbranded embed player
Your podcast, your look.
Our branding removed from the player, plus premium microsite themes to match yours.
05
Several shows, one account
Leadership, training, and team news, kept apart.
Run separate private shows for different audiences, each with its own listeners and unlimited episodes.
06
Real people on support
Talk to people who know your account.
Live chat, phone, and a private Slack channel with the Resonate team.
How It Works
How to create a private podcast in four steps
01
Set up your show
In your Resonate dashboard, create a show and pick how private it should be.
02
Invite your listeners
Add people by email or connect Slack. Add or remove anyone, anytime.
03
Upload episodes
Publish once. Everyone with access gets it in their podcast app, your embed player, or your microsite.
04
Check your analytics
See downloads, subscribers, and listening apps, then plan the next episode around what’s landing.
Need the episodes made, too? Our producers can plan, record, and edit them for you, as well as provide hosting. See the internal podcast service
Case Study
Three private shows. One company. Eight countries listening.
A global enterprise software company runs three internal shows on Resonate private hosting: an engineering show, an executive interview series, and a culture and people show.
Every show is restricted to employees, but nobody had to learn a new app. They subscribe in the podcast player already on their phone, to one show or all three in a combined feed.
Every quarter, the team gets a report that goes past download counts: which titles earn attention, where listeners are, and what to change next.
15,600+ downloads
across the three shows in 90 days
1,280+ employees
subscribed to a private feed
+279%
download growth for the executive interview series in one quarter
