Podscan.fm is a podcast intelligence platform that lets brands, marketers, agencies, and developers know what is being said about them across every podcast within minutes. It continuously scans a database of over 51 million episodes from more than 4 million podcasts, delivering real-time keyword alerts, full-text transcript search, and detailed audience demographic data. Users can track brand mentions, monitor competitors, discover sponsorship and guest-appearance opportunities, and access verified contact information for podcast hosts.<\/p>\n
Beyond monitoring, Podscan provides a comprehensive REST API and a real-time Firehose API, enabling developers to build custom applications on top of its podcast data infrastructure. The platform also features an MCP Server for connecting AI assistants like Claude directly to its podcast database, historical ‘reports’ for scanning backward through months of podcast content, and a proprietary Podscan Reach Score (PRS) \u2014 a 0\u2013100 metric evaluating a podcast’s reach, influence, and engagement. Add-on modules cover listener engagement metrics (completion rates, retention curves) and bulk data exports.<\/p>\n
Podscan was founded and built in public by bootstrapper Arvid Kahl, backed by the Calm Company Fund. Reviewers highlight its strength in proactive reputation management and competitive intelligence, while noting that its tiered pricing may be a consideration for smaller teams or individuals with limited monitoring needs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
