Premiere Pro podcast editing
For podcast multi-cam, AutoPod costs almost twice as much monthly for a bundle padded with tools most Premiere editors do not need. AutoCut is a broad pop-out-style AI suite. OnMic is the cleaner Premiere-first panel built for the actual job: listen to each speaker's mic, pick the right camera, preview the result, and create editable cuts.
AutoPod asks you to pay more for extras. AutoCut asks you to work inside a broader, less focused AI suite. OnMic gives podcast editors the better deal: the right tools, a cleaner Premiere workflow, and a lower price.
| Decision point | OnMic advantage | Why AutoPod loses | Why AutoCut loses |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price | $15/month or $144/year | $29/month, so you pay almost double OnMic for a podcast camera cutter | $178.8/year for the AI plan that includes podcast editing; the cheaper Basic plan is not the comparable podcast plan |
| Podcast editing value | The core podcast job is the product: speaker mics, camera mapping, preview, editable timeline cuts, reaction shots, wide shots, dead-air trim, saved profiles, and sequence checks | The bundle adds Social Clip and Jump Cut panels, but those extras do not make the podcast multi-cam cut better enough to justify the higher price | Podcast editing is one feature inside a broad AI toolkit, which makes the product feel less purpose-built for this job |
| Premiere workflow | Clean, focused Premiere panel for podcast cutting | More tools and panels to bounce between than a podcast editor should need | A pop-out / broad-suite workflow that feels less native and less clean than a focused Premiere panel |
| Feature bloat | You pay for the actual podcast edit, not filler | Charges for extra panels that overlap with normal Premiere workflows | Sells tools like captions, silence cleanup, zooms, resize, and Resolve-facing features that many editors already get from modern editing apps |
| Best fit | Podcast editors and studios who want the fastest clean multi-cam cut | Hard to recommend unless someone is already locked into AutoPod | Hard to recommend if the main job is podcast camera switching in Premiere |
| Studio/team value | Included for up to 3 people on paid WhereToPodcast studio plans | Separate subscription cost for each person | Separate subscription cost for each person |
| Privacy | Audio and video stay on your computer while OnMic analyzes and cuts | Does not beat OnMic on the local-editing story | Does not beat OnMic on the local-editing story |

Competitor prices and features are summarized from their public product and pricing pages as of June 2026. This page compares what matters for podcast multi-camera editing, not long lists of unrelated add-ons.
For podcast multi-cam, AutoPod's extra panels do not justify nearly double OnMic's monthly price. Premiere editors can already handle many of those side jobs without paying more for the bundle.
AutoCut tries to be a broad AI editing suite. For a Premiere podcast edit, that means a less focused interface around the thing you actually came to do.
Many Resolve and Premiere workflows already include modern editing helpers. OnMic focuses on the harder podcast-specific problem: who is speaking, and which camera should show.
It is cheaper than AutoPod, cleaner than AutoCut, local, and built around the exact multi-cam podcast cut you need.
