Kiara Horowitz The Podcast Cleaner

The Podcast Cleaner, LLC

You have messy audio and video.
I clean it up. Simple as that.

Keep the behind the scenes unseen.

Whether you’re a podcaster trying to launch your next big episode or a parent wanting to save a chaotic family video, I do the dirty work so you can just enjoy the final product.

Podcastors & Small Business

You're releasing consistently, but every episode has that thing — the hiss, the dropped words, the intro that wanders. You know it costs you listeners. You just don't have the hours to fix it yourself.Don’t let your podcast episodes or marketing content gather dust.

Family audio & video Preservation

You have VHS tapes, phone videos, or old voice memos that matter too much to lose to a digital closet. You want them to last and to sound like the memories they are.It's okay if you don't have the time to edit out the boring parts. You don't have to figure it out yourself. If it's a recording, I can clean it.

Hi, I’m Kiara.

You have that project you want done, and you might have a relative who could do it for free when they get around to it. But why wait?I'm just like hiring a cleaning lady. Except I tidy up your footage, not your house. You hand over the messy raw files, and I return sparkling, finished media.I'm a straightforward audio and video editor who believes getting professional media shouldn't feel like a chore.

De-junking:

Removing the "umms," "ahhs," long pauses, false starts, and rambling.

Acoustic Dusting:

Vacuum out background wind, echo, hiss, and volume leveling.

Video Polishing:

Clean cuts, smooth transitions, framing, and subtitles.

The practical stuff

📁 What file formats do you accept?

Most common formats: MP3, WAV, MP4, MOV, M4A, and Zoom cloud recordings. If you're unsure, just send it and I'll let you know within 24 hours if there's an issue.

⏱ How long does the turnaround take?

For audio-only files under 60 minutes: typically 2–3 business days. Video files or longer recordings: 3–5 days. Rush turnaround is available — ask when you submit.

🔒 Is my content safe with you?

Yes. Files are transferred securely, used only for your project, and deleted from my system after delivery unless you request otherwise.

💰 Can't I just have a relative do this for free?

Absolutely. If you have a technically skilled family member with the time and software, that's a great option. I'm for people who've been waiting on that person for months and need it done this week.

🎯 Do you work with complete beginners?

Yes! Most of my clients are not audio professionals. You don't need to know what your footage needs. The Free Mess Assessment tells us both exactly what your file requires.

I'm not the best option for you if…

You need same-day turnaround on a regular basis

I prioritize quality over speed, and rushing the process gets you a rushed product.

You want a full production company

I'm a solo editor, not an agency. I don't offer graphic design, show notes writing, or podcast distribution strategy.

Your recording is damaged beyond recovery

I can clean a lot, but some files (extreme distortion, corrupted audio) simply can't be saved. The Free Mess Assessment will tell you honestly before you spend a dime.

I'm exactly the right fit when…

You have good content stuck in a raw recording and you want someone who will treat it with the care it deserves, deliver on time, and communicate clearly throughout.

Ready to stop sitting on that recording?

Tell me about your mess. I'll tell you exactly what it needs — for free, before you commit to anything.
