Which one should you pick?

Pick Frame.io if

You’re building around video podcast teams. Frame.io is the gold standard for time-coded video review — Adobe owns it now, and Premiere/After Effects users get it bundled in Creative Cloud for free.

Pick Podshare if

You’re building around guest-facing share pages. Podshare is a new and intentionally narrow tool from the Slice team: a single shareable page per episode that bundles everything a guest needs to promote — transcript, assets, platform links, suggested captions. That focus is the pitch, but also the limitation.

Frequently asked

What does Frame.io do better than Podshare?

Frame.io's standout is "Frame-accurate comments and annotations". Podshare doesn't make that promise — it leans into "Solves a specific guest-promotion problem cleanly" instead. If the first sentence describes your workflow, pick Frame.io; if the second does, pick Podshare.

What are the trade-offs?

Frame.io: wasted spend for audio-only podcasts. Podshare: narrow scope by design. Whether either matters depends entirely on what you actually need — neither is a deal-breaker by itself.

Do they support the same platforms?

Frame.io works on macOS, Windows, iOS where Podshare doesn't. If you're on a specific OS or device, that may decide for you.

Can I use Frame.io and Podshare together?

Both are asset sharing tools so most teams pick one. Some workflows do combine them — for example, using Frame.io for one show or episode type and Podshare for another. Worth trying both free tiers before committing.
