Transistor plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | $19/month | 4 | Entry tier |
| Professional | $49/month | 4 | +$30/month, 3 more features |
| Business | $99/month | 4 | +$50/month, 3 more features |
| Enterprise | $199/month | 4 | +$100/month, 4 more features |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

People bring Transistor in for hosting and distributing multiple podcasts from one account, running private, subscriber-only podcast feeds, publishing podcast websites and inserting dynamic audio ads. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Transistor are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
Before you pay for Transistor
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 4 tiers between $19/month and $199/month, with the jump itemised above. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare Transistor against the tools that do have one before committing.
Transistor runs on web, and is published by Transistor Inc of Remote. The full record is on the Transistor review.
Transistor pricing questions
- How much does Transistor cost?
- Transistor publishes 4 tiers, from $19/month for Starter up to $199/month for Enterprise. The cheapest paid tier is $19/month.
- Does Transistor have a free plan?
- Not on the record we hold: Transistor is listed as subscription. Whether a free trial is offered is not something this record captures, so check the vendor's site.
- What is the difference between Starter and Professional on Transistor?
- Professional costs $49/month against $19/month, and adds 50,000 downloads/month, advanced analytics, private podcasting.
- Is the Enterprise plan on Transistor worth it?
- That depends entirely on whether you need what it adds, which on the published record is unlimited everything, 300,000+ downloads, priority support, custom integrations. It costs $199/month against $19/month for Starter. Softwr has not used either tier, so this page can tell you what changes, not whether it is worth the difference to you.
- What am I actually paying for with Transistor?
- The record lists 19 features across 5 areas: core, integrations, security, collaboration, platform. In practice it is brought in for hosting and distributing multiple podcasts from one account, running private, subscriber-only podcast feeds, publishing podcast websites and inserting dynamic audio ads.
- Does Transistor charge per user?
- The record carries a price and a billing period for each of its 4 tiers, but not the unit that price is charged in. Per-seat and flat-rate billing look identical in this data, so check the vendor's page before budgeting for a team.
- Are these Transistor prices current?
- They are what the catalogue entry holds, refreshed when the entry is. Vendors change pricing without notice and nobody at Softwr re-verifies each tier by hand, so treat this as a structured summary and the vendor's own pricing page as the authority.
- What should I compare Transistor against before paying?
- Nothing else in this directory is filed close enough to Transistor to make a useful price comparison.
