Campfire vs Internal Cast

Campfire is Auddy’s private audio platform for creating, distributing, and measuring updates to defined audiences. It is aimed at investor relations, internal communications, brands, and fan or member communities. Access is invitation-only, and messages can be tailored to audience segments. Engagement reporting covers completion, skips, replays, and drop-off. Organizations can distribute secure links through email, intranets, Slack, Teams, or investor-relations tools. The browser experience supports branded, access-controlled microsites, while the encrypted mobile app offers offline listening in selected experiences. Web listening requires an internet connection. Auddy states that delivery is encrypted and Campfire is SOC 2 certified. Named-user access, listen history, and exportable logs support oversight; optional enterprise login, automated provisioning, and role-based permissions are available. Auddy also offers creative, editorial, production, and project-management help, including planning, guest outreach, recording, editing, and publishing. Campfire is billed through a base subscription plus usage based on registered listeners; pricing is on request and varies by setup.

Internal Cast turns company information into private podcast-style audio briefings for business and organizational use. Users add pasted text, text files, or PDFs, review and edit the generated script, select a voice, then produce and publish the episode. There is no episode length limit. An editorial profile can guide company terminology, naming conventions, structure, tone, and pronunciation. Episodes can be shared through a web player, private RSS, MP3 download, or the iOS app. The web player and iOS app are invite-only, while anyone with a private RSS link can subscribe, so that link should be treated like a password. The iOS player supports streaming and offline downloads, playback speed adjustment, skip and resume controls, and new-episode notifications. Voice generation supports over 30 languages. Integrations with Jira, Confluence, Slack, Notion, and other internal systems are available on request. Script generation and audio production each use 0.1 token per character; regenerations use tokens again, and unused monthly tokens do not roll over. Plans start at $30 per month, and the free trial includes 3,000 tokens without a credit card.
