Comparison
TrackPodcasts vs Magellan AI
Magellan AI is an audio advertising platform for measurement, attribution and media planning, sold through a demo. TrackPodcasts answers a narrower question — who sponsors which podcasts, and what did the read say — and you can start today for $30 a month.
Choose TrackPodcasts if
- You want to start now, without a sales call
- You need sponsor lists, verbatim reads and promo codes, not attribution
- You want alerts when a brand buys a new show, in email, Slack or a webhook
- You want published prices: $30/month, or $6 for a day
Choose Magellan AI if
- You need campaign attribution: pixel, broadcast radio or pod-to-pod
- You need incremental lift studies or ad verification for your own buys
- You want advertiser spend estimates and rankings
- You plan audio beyond the US, including the markets they list: Canada, the UK, Ireland, Germany and Australia
