Podcast studio digital signage: a practical guide

Podcast studio digital signage is a TV placed behind the host or guest, in view of the camera, that shows the show logo, episode title, guest name, sponsor cards and social handles. With WidgitBoard you build the board in a drag-and-drop editor, open its link on a Smart TV or Fire TV Stick, and update it from any computer before or during recording. It costs $19.99 a month for every screen.

How to set up digital signage in a podcast studio

  1. 1

    Start from the podcaster template

    Open the podcast board and add your show logo and colors. It has cards for the episode, guest, sponsors and social links.

  2. 2

    Prep the board before each episode

    Update the episode number and title, the guest's name and handle, and the sponsor cards for that recording. It takes a few minutes in the editor.

  3. 3

    Mount the TV in the camera shot

    Open the display link on the TV's browser or a Fire TV Stick, sign in once, and go full screen. Frame your camera so the screen sits behind you.

  4. 4

    Name your screens and schedule shows

    Create named displays such as Set Background and Host Monitor, each with its own board. A schedule can switch just the Set Background to a different show's board on the days that show records.

What to show on a podcast studio screen

  • Show branding

    Your logo and artwork on screen gives every video clip a consistent look without editing it in afterward.

  • Episode and guest card

    Episode number, title, guest name, role and handle, so clips shared on social still tell viewers who is speaking.

  • Sponsor cards

    Rotate sponsor or affiliate cards on the board so they appear on camera during read segments.

  • Subscribe QR code

    A QR code to your show page or channel lets video viewers subscribe straight from the frame.

  • Recording clock and timer

    A clock or countdown on a monitor facing the host helps keep segments to time.

  • Green screen background

    Set a solid green background on the board if you prefer to composite widgets into your video in editing or streaming software.

What digital signage costs for a podcast studio

Most podcast studios use a single TV behind the host, with some adding a second monitor facing the host for timers and notes.

  • On per-screen plans, 1 screens cost $96–$240 a year.
  • WidgitBoard costs $190 a year for all 1 screens — and any you add later.

Per-screen range uses each vendor's published lowest business rate, checked September 2026. Calculate your own setup

Podcast studio digital signage FAQ

What should a podcaster put on the TV behind them?

Your show logo, the episode title, the guest's name and handle, rotating sponsor cards and a subscribe QR code. Keep text large and simple so it stays readable in a video frame.

What hardware do I need for a podcast background screen?

Any TV plus a way to open a web page. WidgitBoard runs on any Smart TV browser, Amazon Fire TV Stick, Raspberry Pi, tablet or computer, so there's no proprietary player to buy.

Does WidgitBoard connect to OBS or my streaming software?

There's no direct integration. The board is a web page shown on a TV in your shot. You can also give it a solid green background and composite it yourself in your video or streaming software.

Can I change the board between episodes quickly?

Yes. Edit the guest, episode and sponsor cards from any computer, and a signed-in screen updates within seconds. You can also keep a separate board for each show and assign the one you're recording.

How much does digital signage cost for a podcast studio?

WidgitBoard is $19.99 a month or $190 a year for unlimited screens. Per-screen tools typically charge $8 to $20 per screen per month, or $96 to $240 a year for one screen, so some per-screen plans cost less for a single TV. Flat pricing pays off from two screens up.

Can I try it before committing?

There's no free trial, but you can browse live demo boards on the website first, and every subscription includes a 30-day money-back guarantee.
