Hey Product Hunt 👋 frontend engineer here.
We spent the last few months obsessing over one thing - making podcast ad data actually feel explorable instead of buried in spreadsheets. Most competitive intel tools in this space feel like they were built to justify the enterprise contract. Dense tables, ten-click flows, dropdowns inside dropdowns, ui that hasn't been touched since 2014. we went the opposite direction at SpotsNow with clean, simple and intuitive user-interfaces.
Audio ads are a different beast, you need to hear the ads, see saturation patterns, understand show context, all without it turning into a mess.
Type a brand, get something useful on the first interaction.
Listen to ads inline without breaking your flow.
Build a real campaign in under a minute with over 59k shows to choose from.
User experience matters here more than people think, when the tool is fast and clear, you spend your time on the actual decision (what to spend on, which show to pick) instead of fighting the interface.
Would love feedback on the search and campaign builder flows, those were the hardest to get right and if anything feels off drop it in the thread 🙏
What a neat tool, I'm already having a lot of fun spying on our competitors 😅

@denitsapenchevavaltchanova that’s one of the best use cases already 😅
Glad you’re enjoying it!
SpotsNow
@denitsapenchevavaltchanova Haha that’s the idea 😅 Podcast ads have been way too hidden for too long.
Very interesting. Was there a moment from the last few months where a publisher or advertiser used SpotsNow in a way you didn't design for, but it ended up showing you what the product is actually becoming?
Hey, the audio pixel attribution part is the headline feature for me honestly. promo codes always undercount and brand-lift studies take weeks. quick question, are the pixels embedded at the publisher level or in the ad creative itself? assuming there's a tradeoff between accuracy and publisher buy-in there.
Super interesting idea! I honestly haven't really thought about podcast ads but now tempted to try out this new marketing channel.

@myuan Appreciate it Max! Yeah podcast ads are surprisingly powerful when the audience fit is right.
@abhishek_thory We are building some Saas for real estate teams - What does the podcast coverage actually look like?
SpotsNow
@myuan Great question — we’re already tracking podcast ad activity across a wide range of shows/categories, including business, real estate, investing, local markets, and entrepreneurship. For a real estate SaaS, the interesting angle is finding where real estate teams, agents, brokers, investors, and small business operators are already listening — then seeing which brands are active there.
We also created a sample campaign for you so you can get a feel for the podcast coverage, audience fit, and available inventory: https://spotsnow.io/c/008ef021-f09c-4aca-bce2-fffab98fa061
Would love for you to take a look and hear if this matches the audience you’re trying to reach.

@vel_alagan THANK YOU!

Congrats on the launch, Jeremy! "Who's advertising on which podcast and what they're spending" has been a real blind spot — a competitive-intelligence layer for pod ads, plus buying open inventory in the same place, is a sharp idea. Just followed you on X (@JayTheSong), would love to connect 🎙️
SpotsNow
@JayTheSong Appreciate this Jay! That blind spot is exactly what we’re trying to solve — making podcast ad intel and inventory easier to discover in one place
