When We Edit Podcasts was founded in 2015 by Carli van Heerden, she set out to give podcasters back their time while creating high-quality content without the cost.

3. Lower Street Podcasting — Day Rates from $350

image from Lowerstreet.co

There are editors out there who can do a reasonable job on a simple clean up for under $50 per episode. But that means filtering through a lot of freelancer profiles on Upwork to find the right person (which inevitably requires a lot of trial and error), coordinating the edit with them each week, and a ton of back-and-forth.

And if you want anything any more advanced in terms of editing for content and narrative, the rate will increase dramatically and will need a lot more work from you to get the result you’re looking for.

You can expect a professional editor with NPR, BBC, or equivalent experience to take a day to do a full edit of your podcast with day rates starting at $350+.

The general rule of thumb: you get what you pay for.

4. Alitu — $38 per month- Best podcast editing software
