When AIHosts.fm is a better fit
You have a useful story or point of view, want to record on your own schedule, and need an interview you can share on your website, in a newsletter, or with customers. You review the episode before publication. You can start with the free full interview and decide afterwards whether the $19 clips, graphics, and social-copy kit is useful.
A recorded interview is material you can use to explain your expertise. It is not an independent endorsement of your business, a guarantee of directory acceptance, or a promise that search or AI services will cite you.
Could you use both?
Yes. A finished AIHosts interview can help you practise answering questions and provide a sample of how you explain your work. You can separately pursue independent podcast appearances. Recording here does not book you on another platform’s shows.
