Podcast Score
To calculate a podcast’s score, our proprietry algorithm combines over 30 unique data points including audience size, subscribers, play through rates, and cross-platform influence over time. A podcast’s score ranges between 1-100, 100 being the most popular. 0 indicates no measured rank.
Podcast score is displayed on search results and within the article view:

Analytics
Our existing suite of analytics already supports podcast content. Not all charts will be applicable (AVE) due to the metadata available for this type of media.
Podcast Audience Figures (coming soon)
Podcast audience figures will be available from 30th October in line with our existing 'Reach' metadata from other source types. This will eventually be available on the result views (list and table view) in our next update.
Playback (coming soon)
Content can be played-back either directly from the content URL or via the embedded Podcast Player interface.
Note: The embedded player will be available soon.
Transcript Highlight List
Each highlight in the list has a button to move the player to that section of text, a portion of the transcript where the text occurs and a button that will copy a shareable link to the highlight.
Metadata
Basic information, the episode title, publish date and duration are displayed here, along with links to the podcast source homepage as well as the podcast episodes media.
Transcript
The transcript section includes the full transcript of the podcast episode. Text in the transcript can be clicked to send the media player to the current time. Highlights can be toggled on and off. With auto-scroll enabled the transcript text will scroll to match playback.
Editing Clips (coming soon)
Podcast episodes can be quite long - typically we expect podcast episodes to last between 30 minutes and 3 hours. Users looking to highlight a particular mention can use the editor feature to extract only the relevant portion of the episode.
When the Editor module is enabled, the layout of the Podcast Player changes to include “Module Tabs” on the right side of the view.
Note: The embedded player will be available soon. The editor is expected to be available November.
Transcription
Full ASR transcript with sub-second accuracy.
Priority Ranking Indexing
Source ranking metadata advances top-ranking podcast episodes ahead of lower-ranking content to index influential episodes first.
Dynamic Audio Advertising Detection
Podcasts that produce dynamic audio ads are automatically detected to improve transcript
alignment with audio content.
