Which one should you pick?
Pick Podsqueeze if
You’re building around solo podcaster automation. Podsqueeze is the cheaper, smaller sibling to Castmagic — fewer bells and whistles but real value for solo creators who don't need agency-scale tooling. Show notes, transcripts, and audiograms are the strongest features.
Pick Tally if
You’re building around unlimited free guest forms. Tally is the indie favorite for guest questionnaires because the free tier is actually unlimited, unlike Typeform's stingy 10-response cap. The UI is a touch less polished than Typeform's conversational forms, but you're saving $30 a month and getting Stripe and Notion integration for free.
