FAQs about Ad Verification

What is podcast ad verification?

Podcast ad verification is the process of ensuring that your podcast ads are delivered as scheduled and according to the agreed-upon specifications. This includes verifying that ads are not only aired but also placed in the correct episode, read correctly by the host, and aired without technical issues.

How do airchecks work for podcast verification?

Airchecks are Podscribe’s proprietary process that automatically scans your podcast ads for any delivery errors in real-time. Podscribe’s 18-point checklist ensures the ads are aired in full, at the right time, with no deviations from the approved script.

What do airchecks actually capture?

Each aircheck captures the audio directly from the source and pairs it with an automated transcript, giving you a complete, time-stamped record of exactly what aired, when it aired, and whether it matched your approved script and placement specs. This makes airchecks the most reliable form of ad delivery proof in the industry.

How does this differ from network reporting?

Unlike network reporting, which is often limited to basic data like impressions or downloads, Podscribe’s ad verification offers more detailed insights. With real-time error detection and third-party validation, you get independent, irrefutable proof of ad delivery.

How much can verification save on make-goods?

By identifying delivery errors early, Podscribe’s verification system can save you up to 40% on make-goods. Early detection of issues like missing ad reads, early cutoffs, and incorrect placements prevents wasted budget.

Does verification work with all podcast networks?

Yes, Podscribe’s verification system works with a wide range of podcast networks, including major platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Stitcher, among others.

How quickly are verification issues detected?

Verification issues are detected in real-time with Podscribe’s automated system, ensuring that you are immediately notified if any errors occur during the ad’s delivery.
