What it is

Auphonic is the long-running web app for podcast post — adaptive leveling, true-peak limiting, noise + hum reduction, multitrack alignment, chapter encoding, and publishing to most podcast hosts. Veteran tool, still actively shipped.

Best for: Podcasters who want predictable loudness (-16 LUFS / -19 LUFS) without fiddling with compressors.
Watch out for: Loudness targets help conformance but cannot rescue badly recorded source.
