In short

How do I keep up with Podomatic listener comments without missing any?

WebRun checks Podomatic every morning for new listener comments, logs each one to a Google Sheets activity tracker, and drafts a friendly reply for every comment in Notion. Nothing gets posted on its own, replies sit ready in Notion for you to review, edit, and paste into Podomatic yourself, so every reply still sounds like you.

  • Every new comment gets a ready-to-review reply instead of a blank page
  • Comment activity is archived automatically for the whole show
  • No reply goes out without you reviewing it first

Good to know

Questions, answered

Does it post the replies for me?

No. WebRun only drafts each reply in Notion. Posting a reply to a listener comment in Podomatic is always done by a person.

How does it write the replies?

In a friendly, on-brand tone based on the comment itself. Give WebRun an example of your usual voice and it will match it.

What if a comment doesn't need a reply?

You simply leave that draft unposted. WebRun drafts one for every new comment, but deciding which ones deserve a public reply stays with you.

Put this on autopilot.
