How often does RSS sync run?
Castee checks for feed changes on a schedule and when you manually sync. Republish deploys updates to your live site.
Your website stays in sync with your RSS feed
When you publish a new episode, Castee detects feed changes and updates your site content — so listeners always see the latest show on your own domain.
Why it matters
Built for podcast creators
Automatic episode import
New episodes appear with title, description, artwork, audio URL, and publish date pulled directly from your feed.
Smart change detection
ETag and content-hash checks avoid unnecessary re-imports. Only republish when your feed actually changes.
Metadata stays accurate
Update show artwork, author, or categories in your host — sync refreshes what listeners see on your site.
Works with any public RSS feed
Anchor, Buzzsprout, Transistor, Libsyn, Megaphone, or self-hosted — if it has a feed URL, Castee can import it.
How it works
Step by step
01
Connect your feed
Import once during onboarding. Castee stores parsed episode data linked to your podcast.
02
Publish your site
Each publish bakes the latest episode list into static HTML for maximum speed.
03
Sync when you update
Trigger a sync from the dashboard or rely on scheduled checks — then republish in one click.
Will sync change my RSS feed?
Never. Castee is read-only on your feed. It only updates your website presentation layer.
Can I edit episode content on Castee?
You can override titles, descriptions, and SEO on your site without changing the source feed — useful for web-specific copy.
