Frequently Asked Questions
Does Blubrry have a management API?
Blubrry only exposes a statistics API. You cannot create shows or publish episodes programmatically. PodClaw provides full CRUD API access.
Is Blubrry good for non-WordPress sites?
Blubrry's main product is the WordPress PowerPress plugin. If you're not on WordPress, PodClaw is a much better fit with its pure REST API.
How does Blubrry's storage model work?
Blubrry charges based on monthly upload storage (e.g., 100MB at $12/mo). PodClaw uses downloads-based pricing — no storage limits, unlimited episodes.
