What is Alitu Showplanner?

Alitu Showplanner helps new podcasters plan and structure their shows using AI assistance. The tool guides you through the setup process, covering show concept, target audience, episode structure, and publishing strategy. It's designed for people who want to start podcasting but aren't sure where to begin or how to organise their ideas. Rather than being a full production tool, Showplanner focuses on the planning phase, helping you clarify your show's direction before you record. It works on a freemium model, so you can try the basic planning features without paying upfront.
