Rephonic
Podcast database with listener estimates and outreach lists for guest bookings and sponsorships.
About
Rephonic covers 3M+ podcasts (provider-claimed) with the data PR teams need before they pitch: estimated listener numbers per episode and month, audience demographics (age, gender, location, income, interests, education), engagement scores, chart rankings, and verified contact details for hosts. Its signature 3D audience-overlap graph shows which shows share listeners with a given podcast, which makes it genuinely useful for finding sponsorship targets and cross-promotion partners, not just guest slots.
The workflow runs from search (25 advanced filters) to target lists to a built-in pitch editor with templates and automated follow-ups, plus concierge credits where their team does the research for you. Pricing is public: Light at $99/month (1 user, 100 searches), Standard at $149/month (5 users, 500 searches), and Business at $299/month (10 users, unlimited searches), all with a 7-day trial. One caveat worth knowing: listener numbers are estimates built from hundreds of public data points, good for comparing relative audience sizes, not exact headcounts.

Works with
Trust score — 7/10
Scored 7/10 (TIER verified, metrics-v1). Evidence: public pricing ($99/$149/$299), 7-day trial, and a consistent feature set described across multiple third-party reviews and comparisons (2026). Strengths: transparent pricing, honest accuracy caveats about estimates, real workflow tooling. Docked for: (1) listener estimates are approximations (~52% accuracy cited by one comparison); (2) database size is provider-claimed; (3) proprietary with no API on self-serve tiers. License: proprietary (SaaS, tiered plans).
