Free Audiogram Maker for Podcasters (Because Headliner Charges $8/Month)

Free Audiogram Maker for Podcasters (Because Headliner Charges $8/Month)

If you've ever needed an audiogram for your podcast episode, you've probably hit the Headliner paywall. $8/month for a tool that should be free.

I got tired of it. So I built a better way.

Meet Audiogram Maker for Podcasters

Audiogram Maker for Podcasters is a browser-based audiogram creator that does one thing and does it well — and it works entirely on your device:

  • Upload any audio file (MP3, WAV, M4A, OGG)
  • Generate waveform visualizations with full color control
  • Add episode title, guest name, and featured quotes
  • Download as PNG — ready for Instagram, Twitter, or your blog
  • Completely free — no Headliner subscription, no watermarks, no accounts

Why This Exists

The incumbents in this space are built around subscriptions:

Tool Price Problem
Headliner $8/month Monthly fees for basic audiogram creation. Subscription trap.
Other audiogram tools Freemium Watermarks on free tier. Low-res exports.

This tool is different: completely free. No account, no subscription, no uploads to any server.

How It Works

Zero build step. Zero dependencies. The entire app is a single HTML file with embedded CSS and JavaScript. Your browser generates the waveform using the Web Audio API and Canvas — no server round-trips, no API calls, no data exfiltration.

Key Features

  • Privacy-first: Everything runs in your browser. Your audio file never leaves your device.
  • No signup: Just upload and create. No account, no email, no tracking.
  • Fully customizable: Pick your colors, waveform position, and text styling.
  • Episode details: Add title, guest name, and featured quotes — perfect for podcast promotion.
  • Instant export: Download your audiogram as a high-resolution PNG in one click.
