Welcome to ehkootay Alpha!

Last Updated: October 21, 2025

Thanks for Being an Early User!

Thank you so much for participating in the ehkootay (eh•koo•tay) alpha program! Your feedback, patience, and willingness to try this experimental service are invaluable.

ehkootay is a service for sharing podcast episodes with friends through custom RSS feeds. You're helping shape what this becomes, and we're deeply grateful for your participation.

Important Warnings

🚧 This is Alpha Software

ehkootay is in very early development. Please be aware:

• Expect bugs, errors, and unexpected behavior
• The service may go down or be unavailable at times
• Features may change dramatically or be removed entirely
• We may need to make breaking changes

👀 We Can See What You're Sharing

During the alpha phase, a human (currently just the founder) MAY see the podcasts and episodes you share as part of:

• Providing the service
• Debugging issues and errors
• Improving the service and understanding how people use it

While we respect your privacy and won't share your data with others, we cannot guarantee anonymity during this early phase. If you're uncomfortable with this, please wait for a more mature version of the service.

📧 Your Email Address

We'll use your email address to:

• Send important service announcements
• Notify you of breaking changes or issues
• Communicate about the alpha program
• Occasionally ask for feedback

We will not share your email with anyone else or use it for marketing purposes.

⚖️ Legal Stuff

Please review our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy to understand your rights and our obligations. The key points:

• You must be 18 or older to use ehkootay
• The service is for personal, non-commercial use only
• The service is provided "as is" with no guarantees
• We may terminate or suspend the service at any time
• You're responsible for ensuring you have the right to share the podcasts you recommend

What We're Looking For

Feedback We'd Love to Hear

We're eager to hear your thoughts on:

• What works well? What features do you love?
• What's confusing or broken? Where did you get stuck?
• What's missing? What features would make this more useful?
• How are you using it? Are you sharing with friends, discovering new podcasts, or something else?
• Performance issues: Is anything slow or unresponsive?

How to Share Feedback

Please don't hesitate to reach out! No feedback is too small or too silly.

Questions? Problems? Comments?

Please send them to: alpha@ehkootay.com

Whether you've found a bug, have a feature request, or just want to chat about podcasts, we'd love to hear from you.

Typical response time during alpha:

• Urgent issues (can't access service, data loss): Within 24 hours, usually much faster
• General feedback and questions: Within a few days
• Feature requests and ideas: We'll acknowledge receipt and discuss feasibility

What's Next?

We're actively working on:

• Improving reliability and uptime
• Supporting more types of podcast urls
• Adding features based on your feedback
• Fixing bugs you report

As the service matures, we'll transition from alpha to beta and eventually to a full public release. You'll be the first to know about major milestones!

Thank You Again!

Seriously, thank you for being here at the beginning. Your participation makes all the difference.

Let's build something great together.

— The ehkootay team
