| The verdict | Amazon's network host. An ad ops desk with files attached. Not a first-show weekly host. |
| Free tier | No free tier listed. A trial may be available. |
| Best for | Networks, publishers, and sales teams with a catalog they already sell against. A studio that needs to swap ads across old episodes without re-uploading. |
| Not the best fit | Someone starting a weekly first show. A beginner who wants a friendly upload box. A hobby host shopping cheap monthly hosts. |
| The gotcha | You talk to sales. If nobody on your team sells ads, you are paying for the wrong desk. |
