Podchaser Employee Directory

Podchaser is a comprehensive podcast database, search engine, and intelligence platform founded in 2016 by Bradley Davis, Ben Slinger, Cole Raven, and Ryan Stock to create a centralized, independent "source of truth" for the global audio ecosystem. Functioning as an "IMDb for podcasts," the platform profiles over 6 million podcasts and hundreds of... millions of episodes, providing users with tools to discover, rate, review, and organize shows into custom, user-curated playlists. It tracks millions of verified creator credits to map professional connections between hosts, guests, and production crews, while offering developers data integration options through flexible REST and GraphQL API structures. For enterprise clients, brands, PR agencies, and publishers, the platform's premium suite ("Podchaser Pro") offers deep audience intelligence metrics, detailed listener demographics, and a contact database featuring over 2 million validated industry email addresses categorized by role to streamline media outreach and sponsorship booking. Additionally, Podchaser tracks ad spend, monitors global brand sponsorships, and utilizes transcript-powered keyword alerts to notify users when specific topics are spoken across major shows. Following its steady growth as a remote, globally distributed company, Podchaser was acquired by the major audio technology company Acast in July 2022 but continues to operate as an independent platform serving the broader podcast industry.Read More
