Team and Roles

Podcasts are rarely a one-person job. The Team tab lets you invite collaborators to your show and control what each person can do.

To get there, open your podcast and go to Podcast Settings → Team.

The Three Roles

Every team member has one of three roles:

RoleWhat they can do
HostFull control including billing and deletion
ProducerCan manage everything except billing
Co-HostCan edit episodes and view analytics

A few rules govern who can manage whom:

  • Hosts can change anyone's role or remove anyone
  • Producers can only manage Co-Hosts
  • Only a Host can promote someone to Host
  • Nobody can change their own role or remove themselves

Team roles vs. episode credits

Roles control who can log in and work on the show. They're separate from episode credits, which record who appears on an episode. Removing someone from the team doesn't erase their past credits. See People and Credits.

Invite a Team Member

  1. On the Team tab, click Invite Member
  2. Enter their Email address
  3. Choose a Role: Co-Host or Producer (you can promote them later)
  4. Fill in Personal message (optional) if you'd like a note included in the invitation email
  5. Click Send Invitation

The invitation email goes out immediately and appears under Pending Invitations until it's accepted.

Team seats are limited by plan

Your plan sets how many team seats your account includes: 1 on Free and Creator, 3 on Studio, 10 on Production House, and unlimited on Enterprise. If you're at the limit, clicking Invite Member opens an upgrade prompt instead of the form. See Billing and Plans.

Accept an Invitation

The invited person clicks the link in their invitation email, which opens a Team Invitation page showing the podcast, who invited them, the role, and the expiry date.

  1. Log in to PodcasterPlus, or click Log In to Accept. No account yet? There's a Sign up link on the same page
  2. Make sure you're logged in with the email address the invitation was sent to. If you're logged in as someone else, the page explains the mismatch and offers Log In with Different Account
  3. Click Accept Invitation

The podcast appears in their sidebar right away.

Manage Pending Invitations

The Pending Invitations card lists invitations that haven't been accepted yet, each with its expiry date. Expired invitations are marked Expired.

  • Click the Resend invitation button (paper-plane icon) to send the email again
  • Click the Cancel invitation button (X icon) to withdraw it

Change a Role or Remove Someone

In the Current Members list, open the actions menu next to a member:

  • Change role opens the Change Role dialog. Pick the New Role and click Save Changes
  • Remove from team opens the Remove Team Member dialog. Click Remove Member to confirm; they lose access to this podcast immediately
