High quality podcast database
Our data is aggregated from multiple sources and updated 24/7.
Podcast data are inherently messy (e.g., malformed RSS feed, broken audio links...).
We built a lot of sophisticated internal tools to clean up such messy data automatically and manually 24/7.
Read DOCS for all
endpoints and sample JSON responses.
Fast, reliable, scalable
We take care of the complex backend infrastructure, so you can focus on your product.
See STATUS for
system health.
Save time. Save money.
It costs more than $100 for 1 hour engineering time in San Francisco. Using Listen API can easily save you hundreds of hours engineering time to build a very basic version of your own podcast database and thousands more hours to improve / maintain the infrastructure down the road.
