YouTube audience
See how many people watch each show on YouTube
Some shows reach most of their audience on YouTube. Pod Engine measures the show’s linked YouTube channel and adds it to the estimate, so you see the whole audience, not just the podcast apps.
Audio-only, Behind the Business looks like a 9K show. It’s 281K.
Checking audio charts alone, you would have skipped it.
Episode links
Each episode, matched to Apple Podcasts and its YouTube video
A podcast episode and its YouTube upload rarely share a title, a length or a date. Pod Engine matches them anyway, and tracks the video’s views.
- Watch the exact ad read or interview before you buy or pitch
- Send a client one link that plays, on the platform they use
- Views per episode, not just per channel
- Both links in the API and MCP
