| Tooling | No public upload API found (search surfaced only third-party 'integration' marketing pages). Web dashboard only for uploads; the RSS feed itself is a plain GET, so read-side automation is trivial. Public feed format: https://feeds.redcircle.com/<show-uuid> (documented in RedCircle's own Apple distribution guide). |
|---|
| Composes with | 1 podcast per free account, but unlimited episodes per podcast and unlimited storage — so capacity is per-account, not per-episode: N accounts x unbounded. 200 MB/episode is the only multiplier, so large volumes need many episodes rather than few large files (200 MB x unlimited episodes is still unbounded). |
|---|
| Reliability | Serves a dynamic-ad-inserted stream, not your file. Verified live: feed enclosure https://audio3.redcircle.com/episodes/de9e4cc6-.../stream.mp3 -> 302 to media.redcircle.com -> 206, Content-Range 0-1023/60125855, while the feed declared length=60122174 — an 3,681-byte difference, i.e. the served object differs from the declared one (insertion points get stitched in). Audio is 128 kbps stereo joint. RedCircle's own help says 'Episodes are downloaded with Insertion Points, so you may download ads and other custom audio' — confirming the delivered bytes are not the uploaded bytes. |
