Frequently Asked Questions
I'm a content creator, is this for me?
Yes! ShowShaper is evolving into an essential episode builder for podcasters, YouTube video producers, bloggers, and UGC creatives—good for DIYers just starting out or seasoned professionals.
Whether you're making long-form videos for YouTube or LinkedIn, or reels and shorts for Instagram or TikTok, ShowShaper is the go-to toolkit for creators. It's a smarter way to collect content, plan a show, and present it on camera.
Why does the right tool matter? We unpack it on our blog →
How can ShowShaper help me?
We want ShowShaper to simplify content collection and planning so you can focus on creating. Most creators have a mess of information scattered across documents, spreadsheets, notepad apps, endless folders...sound familiar?
It's hard to grow a channel like that.
We're building this web-based tool to help cut the clutter and make episode planning easier: a powerful content organizer, an episode builder, and an interactive prompter.
I’m new to content creation, is ShowShaper easy to learn?
Yes, it's easy—we're making ShowShaper intuitive and familiar. If you've used Google docs or sheets, you'll be right at home. We'll also have a guided setup so you can start capturing and tagging ideas, and building episodes!
So whether you're a YouTuber, a Facebook creator, an Instagram influencer, or a podcaster, we're making ShowShaper the essential toolkit for content creation.
Why is content organization important for an episode-based show?
In a word: overload. Think of how much content you collect across all your devices...show ideas, text, photos, products, web pages, social posts, interview questions, videos, news stories...week after week, month after month.
Spreadsheets and note taking apps really don't cut it!
Having your digital notes tagged and stored in one place makes it easier to find and use later—so you're not hunting across multiple documents, platforms, or devices. And that means more focus on making great episodes!
One place for ideas, content, and scripts. Maybe you'll relate to this →
Will ShowShaper save me time?
That's the plan. Content creation is time-intensive. Episode-based shows are especially tough because making entertainment from raw content, week after week, takes real effort. Then add recording, editing timelines, and release schedules...burnout happens.
Our aim with ShowShaper is to streamline the up-front planning work to save time and to make creating content more...creative.
What's the "Interactive prompter"?
Think of it like a teleprompter script...that feels like a browser: scroll up/down by topic, zoom an image, play a video or audio file, or open a link in a browser tab. It helps you follow your episode plan while keeping you on point.
For some creators, talking on camera or into a mic can feel awkward, but the prompter turns your episode into an easy checklist of talking points—freeing you up to be you!
The best part? Having your talking points in front of you means less wasted footage and a better flow, which can help cut time spent editing.
Your audience craves confidence, connection, and clarity. It’s about energy. Read on →
Do I need to be on camera/mic to use ShowShaper?
Nope. Anyone who needs a way to quickly save, tag, and build with content will love ShowShaper. We're building it because we need it too!
Can I add sponsor messages and paid promotions to my episodes?
Yes. We're designing the episode builder to suit different formats and content needs. Creators can insert promotional segments into their episode plan along with discussion topics, links and media, intros/outros, and presenter cues.
It's a creative flow that makes it easy to highlight important info you don't want to skip.
Can I collaborate with a co-host or team?
Collaboration tools are on our roadmap but for now we're focused on streamlining the creator workflow. Watch this space! 👽
