Every podcaster eventually hits the same wall: you record a great episode, but turning it into shareable video clips for social media eats up hours you don't have. Headliner is one of the tools built specifically to solve that, turning full-length audio or video episodes into captioned, platform-ready clips in a browser. I went through their site and pricing page in detail to see what's actually included.
Headliner is a browser-based tool for promoting podcasts, radio shows, and blogs with video. It turns one full-length audio or video episode into multiple optimized, accessible podcast clips, complete with transcription, auto-captioning, and audiogram waveform animations — no separate video editor required.
Turn one full-length episode into up to 10 optimized, accessible podcast clips, automatically captioned and formatted for the platform you're posting to.
Get an automatic transcription of your podcast alongside your video edits, cutting down the manual editing work per episode.
Convert audio into video and publish full-length audiograms or short clips straight to YouTube.
Auto-post audiograms to social media every time you publish a new episode, so your reach isn't limited to a single platform.
A mobile app lets you edit and share clips from anywhere, not just at a desktop.
The Disco widget dynamically recommends your podcast content to blog readers, and Headliner offers API and custom enterprise solutions for hosts and networks that need deeper customization.
Headliner runs on a simple three-tier model, with up to 50% savings when billed annually instead of monthly:
Headliner also offers free upgrades for qualifying education and nonprofit organizations, plus custom Enterprise/API solutions for podcast networks and larger publishers.

Headliner earns its place in a podcaster's toolkit by making the most tedious part of podcast marketing — turning long episodes into shareable clips — genuinely simple, with a free tier generous enough to actually use rather than just a trial gate. If you're publishing episodes regularly and still manually clipping and captioning videos, the Basic or Pro tier pays for itself quickly in saved editing time and wider reach.
