How are ad reads detected?

Episodes are transcribed and ad segments are identified in the transcript, then matched to a brand. Our methodology page explains the rules and the checks that remove false positives.

Can I get the reads through the API?

Yes. /v1/ad-reads is a feed of the newest reads across every brand, filterable by brand, show and time.

Do you store the audio?

No. We store the transcript and link to the episode at the right timestamp; the audio stays with the publisher.

Read the ad, not the media kit

Every sponsorship we list comes with the words that were actually said on air — so you can compare how a brand is pitched across shows, or check that your own read ran as written.
