Hey everyone I've been spending a lot of time thinking about podcast growth lately - especially from the perspective of independent creators who don't always have access to big platforms or network-level tools. Will older tools like Chartable now gone, I'm curious how others are navigating this space in 2025. Here are a few things I d love to hear your thoughts on:
How are you tracking your podcast s growth and audience reach today?
Are there features or tools you wish podcast platforms offered?
What kind of insights or analytics do you think actually help with growth?
What s one thing that frustrates you about the current landscape?
I ve been personally diving into this space and would love to compare notes, learn from your experiences, and understand how others are approaching it. Let s make this a shared resource for anyone building or growing a podcast in 2025
I ve been building ResonanceX a podcast analytics platform to help creators understand traffic, listener behavior, and campaign performance. Since Chartable shut down, there s been a noticeable gap, especially for indie podcasters trying to grow.
I ve been working on a product for podcasters and while I m excited about the idea, it s been tricky to consistently connect with the right people for feedback.
I ve tried a few things: replying in niche communities, asking questions on Reddit, and even testing out some cold outreach. A couple of early chats helped shape my thinking, but it s been tough to keep the momentum going.
I ve been thinking a lot lately about how creators especially podcasters, YouTubers, and indie writers often get overlooked by mainstream tools that try to serve everyone at once.
Curious to hear what small, purpose-built products people here are building that genuinely serve a creator niche.
Hey folks! I m Aryansh a solo developer currently building a podcast-focused side project.
I started working on it after seeing some great tools disappear (RIP Chartable) and realising how many podcasters still struggle to understand their own growth.
I ve been building ResonanceX solo a podcast analytics MVP focused on smartlink tracking, audience insights, and growth forecasting.
With Chartable gone, many podcasters have been left in the dark when it comes to traffic and campaign tracking. So I built ResonanceX as a clean, creator-first alternative.
ResonanceX is a podcast analytics tool that helps creators understand their audience and optimise promotions. Track clicks, conversions, and traffic sources with smartlinks, and get a real-time dashboard preview—even with fallback data. MVP now live!
