Colorado has a 4.4% flat income tax. Flat 4.4% income tax. Complex local tax jurisdictions — over 70 home-rule cities with their own sales tax rates. Denver occupational privilege tax ($5.75/month for employees).
When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $1,356/year software expense is partially deductible — but Nexa at $279 once is a one-time deduction that eliminates the recurring expense entirely.
Whether you call it payment tracking, a system for jobs, or a invoicing system — most podcast editors in Aurora stack up HoneyBook, FreshBooks, Toggl Track, Harvest and similar apps. That's $1,356/year on recurring software. Over 5 years at today's prices, that bill reaches $6,780.
Nexa means you stop renting software. Your CRM, payment tracking, scheduling, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — under one roof in a single system. A single action books a client. A single action generates an invoice. No bouncing between tools. No middleware. No add-on costs. It's a pay once — cut costs right away. For podcast editors in Aurora weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
You start by pulling down last night's recording from the shared folder, and immediately hear it: the host recorded on earbuds, there's a fan in the background, and the guest's levels are half the host's. RX comes out first, de-noise, de-click, a little de-reverb on the kitchen-table boominess, then leveling so the two voices sit together. The actual edit is the long part: cutting the false starts, the 'um's, the tangent about the host's vacation, the place where the dog barked, tightening a rambling answer so it lands. You drop in the intro music, the ad read, the outro, and ride the music under the talk. The client messaged 'super quick edit this week' but they're net-30 and you're three invoices deep waiting. Mid-afternoon the host adds to the order: three audiogram clips for social, written show notes, and chapter markers, none of which was in the per-episode rate. You render the master to the right loudness target, upload it, generate the extras, and update the project. By evening you've turned two hours of messy kitchen audio into a clean 48-minute episode and you're not sure the rate covered the cleanup, let alone the clips.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build a podcast editor's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a podcast editor — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
