What ART19 is
ART19 provides podcast hosting and related tools for publishers creating, distributing, monetizing and measuring shows. Its WarpFeed dynamic ad insertion lets publishers choose ad breaks, replace older ads and serve listener-specific advertising. Campaign controls include episode, geographic and positional targeting, competitive separation and frequency capping. ART19 supports dynamically inserted audio spots and host-recorded live reads, and publishers can customize RSS feeds for different listening platforms, including exclusive or ad-free feeds. Analytics include downloads, impressions, API listens, geography and listening by user agent, with custom reports by network, series, episode, campaign, ad, agency or brand. Distribution requires manual submission to services including Amazon Music/Audible, Apple Podcasts, Deezer, iHeart, Pandora, Spotify, TuneIn and YouTube. API access is available by request to network and series owners and can manage episodes, feeds and ad markers, but it cannot retrieve analytics beyond an episode’s all-time download count. ART19 says its download measurement uses IAB v2.2 server-side methodology and filters bot and other non-human requests.
