Beyond the download

Downloads were never the point.

PodAnalyst was built on a simple idea: the number that everyone chases tells you the least. What actually matters starts where that number stops.

01 · The floor

Downloads

A download only means a file was sent. It says nothing about whether a single person actually listened.

02 · Better

Engagement

Engagement matters more. Retention shows who stayed and exactly where they dropped, episode by episode.

03 · What matters most

Understanding

Understanding your audience matters most. Why they stay, what they respond to, what to make next.

PodAnalyst lets you know your audience in a whole new way. Don't just see your data. Understand it. Ask it anything.

Insights on demand

We are your PodAnalyst.

Connect Claude or ChatGPT and just ask. It turns your real numbers into clear, specific answers, the moment you need them.

Connect the dots

Cross-reference retention, topics, reviews, and growth in ways you never could by hand. "What do my top 10 episodes have in common that my bottom 10 don't?"

See what you can't

Surface the patterns hiding in your catalog. "What's the single biggest missed opportunity in my back catalog right now?"

Know what to do

Get a plan, not just numbers. "Build me a content plan for next month grounded in what's actually working."

Retention

Know exactly what keeps them hooked.

Episode-level, second-by-second retention from Apple and Spotify. See precisely where listeners drop off and what holds them. No download number can show you this, and no competitor offers it.

Frequently asked questions

How does PodAnalyst get my podcast data?

We connect directly to your first-party data from Apple Podcasts and Spotify, the same numbers you see in their dashboards, unified in one place and refreshed daily.

What is "insights on demand"?

Connect your own AI assistant, Claude or ChatGPT, to PodAnalyst and ask questions about your show in plain language. It answers like an analyst, grounded in your live PodAnalyst numbers. It is included on every plan, free included.

What are retention metrics and why do they matter?

Retention shows how much of each episode people actually listen to, quarter by quarter. A download tells you someone got the file. Retention tells you whether they stayed, which is the difference between a real audience and a vanity number.

How is this different from Apple Podcasts Connect or Spotify for Podcasters?

Those tools show you one platform's raw numbers and leave the analysis to you. PodAnalyst unifies every platform, adds retention and topic data they do not offer, and gives you an analyst that interprets all of it for you.

Is my data secure?

Yes. Your data is yours. When you connect an assistant, you approve exactly what it can access, and you can disconnect at any time.

What if I have more questions?

Reach out anytime and our team will help you get set up.
