A small host, on purpose
Norsolia is a two-person project that has hosted podcasts since 2020. We build a plain, correct host and keep it that way. No funding round, no growth targets, no feature we cannot maintain.
How we got here
2020 — Started in March as a private beta, opened publicly in November. One region, MP3 and M4A, a feed that validates.
2021 — Opened the public API (v1), added a second independent region, and shipped Podcasting 2.0 tags and scheduling.
2022 — One-click data export. Announced the retirement of the old v0 API.
2023 — A live status page with public incident history. Retired v0 on schedule.
2024 — Chapter markers. Closed the Riga region and migrated its handful of accounts.
2025 — Analytics export and the migration wizard.
2026 — A region in Asia-Pacific, and a move to this address, carrying every feed and this whole archive with it.
How it is funded
Out of pocket, during the beta. If storage cost outgrows what two people can carry, paid Plus and Network plans will cover it. There are no payments today, and the free beta stays free for accounts made on it.
The people
Two of us: one on the backend and operations, one on the feed, the pages and support. We are not incorporated; this is a side project we keep honest rather than a company chasing scale. The only way to reach us is the form.
