Say hello to Acast's new Analytics dashboard
Acast’s new Analytics dashboard brings podcast audio, video, and social metrics into one view. Track cross-platform performance and grow your podcast audience.
Podcasting has moved far beyond audio-only RSS feeds. Your audience is watching video episodes, catching clips on social media, and listening on-the-go.
Until now, getting a clear view of that audience meant juggling separate platforms and stitching numbers together in spreadsheets.
That's why we're introducing the new Analytics dashboard. It replaces the ‘Insights’ in your Acast dashboard, and it's included in all plans.
More of your audience, in one place
Instead of checking your listening stats in one place, your video views on Apple Podcasts in another and your social following in a third, you'll find them all in one dashboard.
Your history comes with you, and the features you know are still there.
What's new in the Analytics dashboard
- Know who's listening. See your audience's age and gender, alongside location, apps and devices. Connect your YouTube, TikTok and Instagram accounts to add those audiences and your follower counts in the Audience tab.
- Video next to audio. For shows with video on Apple Podcasts, see audio downloads and video views side by side and cumulatively, and weigh up what your video strategy needs. Unique listeners and unique viewers are shown separately, plus a combined figure with the overlap removed.
- Compare, not just count. Run more than one show or network? Put them side by side in Content Performance, down to episode level.
- Realtime and simple. See live estimates for today with a last-synced time, and download the data you choose with one button.
Good to know: the Audience tab shows one show at a time. Social figures come from the platforms' public APIs, so they may not match what each platform shows in its own dashboard.
From who's listening to what it's worth
Knowing your audience isn't only about tracking growth. It's the first step in turning influence into income.
When you talk to brand partners, you can now speak to who your audience is, not just how many people are in it. Realtime Earnings and Payouts tabs for revenue analysis haven't changed, and are still there for anyone with the Revenue Analyst role.
