Which one should you pick?
Pick Cleanvoice if
You’re building around ai post-production cleanup. Cleanvoice removes um, ah, mouth sounds, long silences, and background noise from podcast recordings automatically. Pay-as-you-go credits at $11 for 5 hours, monthly plans $11-$90 for 10-100 hours.
Pick Foyer if
You’re building around premium-feel guest portals. Foyer is built as a secure client portal for accountants and consultants, not for podcasters specifically, but it works surprisingly well as a branded guest hub if you want to look the part. For most shows it's overkill — a Google Drive folder and a Tally form will do the same job for free.
