In their own words
ART19
ART19 is a podcast platform for publishers covering hosting, creation, distribution, monetization, advertising, and measurement. Its WarpFeed technology lets publishers select ad breaks, replace older ads, and deliver listener-specific ads. Campaign tools support episode, geographic, and positional targeting, plus competitive separation and frequency capping. Publishers can create alternate RSS feeds for different listening platforms, including exclusive or ad-free experiences. ART19 distributes shows through manual submission to services including Amazon Music/Audible, Apple Podcasts, Deezer, iHeart, Pandora, Spotify, TuneIn, and YouTube. Analytics include downloads, impressions, API listens, geography, and user-agent listening, with custom reports by network, series, episode, campaign, ad, agency, or brand. The service supports private podcasts, video podcast distribution in a beta program, dynamically inserted audio spots, and host-recorded live reads. API access is available by request for network and series owners, but analytics retrieval is limited to an episode’s all-time download count. Pricing is on request; usage-based hosting varies with bandwidth and other listed factors.
