## How it works

From “shows like this exist?” to a sent pitch in one conversation.

1. **Describe the show** — Topic, audience, format, guest type — in your own words. “Fintech shows that interview compliance leaders” works. So does “podcasts my CEO should be on.”
2. **Featured searches 814,000 active shows** — The database was built by analyzing more than 5 million podcasts and keeping only shows that published in the last 60 days — so every result actually books guests and actually publishes.
3. **Pitch and get booked** — Featured drafts a host pitch that references real episodes and proposes a specific segment. Send it, book the recording, and let a workflow keep new shows coming.

## What makes Featured's podcast discovery different

Most podcast databases are directories. This one was built by elimination — five million shows analyzed, the inactive ones cut.

- **814,000 — Active shows, not listings.** One of the largest databases of active podcasts available to PR teams — every show published an episode within the last 60 days.
- **5M+ — Analyzed so you don't have to.** Featured analyzed more than five million podcasts to separate the shows worth pitching from the graveyard of abandoned feeds.
- **0 — Filters to learn.** No genre dropdowns or spreadsheet exports. Describe the show you want in plain language and refine in the same chat — “smaller shows,” “US-based,” “interviews only.”
- **1 — Pitch-ready output.** Every list comes back ready to act on, and the same chat drafts your host pitch — referencing real episodes, proposing a real segment.

## Put podcast discovery on a schedule

The Find Podcasts workflow keeps hunting for shows that match your niche and delivers a batched list to Slack or email on your schedule.

## Find Podcasts — frequently asked questions

**How do I find podcasts to pitch?**

Describe the show you want to be on — topic, audience, guest type — and Featured searches its database of 814,000 active podcasts to return shows that fit and actually book guests. From there, the same chat drafts your pitch to each host. It replaces the directory-scrolling and spreadsheet-filtering that used to be the slowest part of podcast outreach.

**How big is Featured's podcast database?**

814,000 active shows, identified by analyzing more than 5 million podcasts. “Active” means the show published an episode within the last 60 days — so you never pitch a feed that quietly died in 2023. It's one of the largest databases of active podcasts available to PR teams.

**How do I get booked as a podcast guest?**

Target shows that already interview guests like you, then pitch the host with specifics: reference a recent episode, propose a segment their audience would want, and explain the unique experience you bring. Featured handles the targeting and drafts the pitch; you add the credibility only you have.

**What makes a good podcast pitch?**

Three things: proof you've heard the show (name a real episode), a specific segment idea rather than “I'd love to come on,” and a reason you're the right guest — credentials, data, or a story no one else can tell. Keep it under 150 words. Hosts book guests who make their next episode easier.

**Can Featured tell me about a show's audience?**

Featured surfaces what each show covers, its format, publishing cadence, and the kinds of guests it books — the signals that predict whether a pitch lands. Ask follow-up questions in the same chat, like “which of these publish weekly?” or “which have featured founders at my stage?”

**How much does podcast discovery cost on Featured?**

It's included in every plan. Featured is free to start; paid plans are $39/month (Lite) and $79/month (Pro, billed annually). Every plan includes every feature — podcast discovery, journalist requests, bylines, monitoring, GEO — and only usage scales.

**Are podcasts worth it for PR and AI visibility?**

Yes, twice over. A guest spot earns you 30–45 minutes of dedicated attention from a niche audience — better engagement than almost any other placement. And podcast episodes get transcribed, indexed, and cited: AI assistants read those transcripts and show notes when they decide which experts and brands to mention.

**How long does it take to get booked on a podcast?**

Smaller and mid-size shows often book within 2–4 weeks of a good pitch; larger shows plan months ahead. A steady rhythm — a handful of tailored pitches a week from a fresh list — reliably fills a quarterly calendar. A workflow keeps the list fresh without you searching again.

**Do PR agencies use Featured for podcast booking?**

Heavily. Agencies build separate target lists per client in minutes, keep a workflow running for each roster, and use the chat to draft host pitches in each client's voice. What used to be a research retainer line-item becomes a background process.
