MatchMaker.fm is a UK-based guest-booking platform built by Podcasting Ltd (the team behind Podcast.co) that lets podcast hosts and potential guests find each other without cold outreach or email chains. Users create a profile \u2014 either from scratch or by importing an existing show via Apple Podcasts \u2014 describe their expertise or what they’re looking for in a guest, and are then surfaced to a community of over 70,000 podcasters, radio producers, and YouTube creators spanning 100+ specialist niches. Weekly ‘auto-magic’ match suggestions, advanced search filters, and an in-app unified inbox replace the traditional back-and-forth of guest sourcing.<\/p>\n
The platform operates on a freemium model: the free tier lets anyone create a profile, get discovered, and initiate a limited number of outbound conversations per month, while the Pro plan unlocks unlimited conversations, priority listing, custom favourite lists, scheduling-tool integration, and custom labels for workflow management. An Agency plan supports up to 10 guest profiles and 5 team members, making it suitable for PR firms and podcast-booking agencies managing multiple clients.<\/p>\n
Reviewers on Trustpilot and Product Hunt consistently praise the platform’s ease of use, high response rates, and the quality of connections made, with one user reporting 48 podcast bookings in 30 days. Critics note that some advanced features are gated behind the paid tier, and that a minority of shows on the platform charge appearance fees, which can catch new users off guard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
