Who this is for: studio operators (admin panel) · Plan: all plans · Product: Podyx V2
In a studio, the person who books is often not the person in front of the mic. Guests are the people featured in a session: most often a podcast guest or the person being interviewed, and sometimes several people for a panel or group recording. Podyx keeps them as their own records, so over time you build a genuinely useful database.

🙋 Client versus guest
A client is the account holder who books and pays. A guest is someone featured in the session who is not that account holder: typically the podcast guest or interviewee, or several people in a panel or group recording. Keeping the two separate means your booking belongs to the client, while you still capture everyone who actually appeared.
🗃 A database worth having
That growing list of guests is more useful than it first looks. You can:
Prep properly: know exactly who is appearing and get ready for them.
Spot repeat guests across sessions and clients.
Keep records for follow-ups, releases, clips, and outreach.
Feed your AI briefing: guest profiles combine with client data to power the pre-session briefing you set up in Settings.
🧩 How guests are captured
Guests can be added during booking or from the session, and they appear in your Guests list. The booking still belongs to the client, and the guest record simply captures who was featured.
🧠 Why it matters
Your guest list becomes the studio's memory of everyone who has been through the door. That is valuable for preparation, for marketing and clip rights, and for the AI briefing that helps you walk into each session knowing exactly who you are working with.
✅ Summary
Clients book and pay; guests are the people featured in the session, like podcast interviewees. Capturing them builds a database you can use for prep, marketing, and smarter briefings.
