Transistor

Podcast host for unlimited shows per account, with IAB-compliant download analytics and dynamic ad insertion.

Transistor is a podcast hosting platform built for creators and small networks who want multiple shows under one account: every plan, including the entry tier, includes unlimited podcasts, each with its own RSS feed, website, and analytics. Its download analytics follow IAB guidelines to exclude duplicate downloads, bot traffic, and search-index crawls, giving listener trends, geographic breakdowns, and app/device data at the episode level. Paid tiers add dynamic pre-, mid-, and post-roll ad insertion and dynamic show notes. It is priced by monthly download volume and private-subscriber count rather than per show, which suits publishers running several podcasts who would otherwise pay per-show fees elsewhere.
