We have just released a significant upgrade to our Ad auto-Optimizer, further improving how ad breaks are automatically inserted into podcast episodes.

With this update, the system now prioritizes ad markers generated by Sounder unlocking more precise and context-aware mid-roll placement powered by AI.
The ads Auto-Optimizer automatically inserts ad breaks into podcast episodes, helping creators and publishers monetize their content without manual intervention. Until now, the system relied primarily on detecting silences within episodes to determine where ads should be placed.

With the latest release, that process has been refined. The Auto-Optimizer will now first look for ad markers generated by Sounder, AI-driven audio intelligence technology. These markers are created by analyzing the structure and content of an episode, identifying the most appropriate moments for mid-roll ads, such as topic transitions, pauses between segments, or natural breaks in the conversation.
If Sounder ad markers are available, the algorithm will use them as the primary source for ad placement. In cases where Sounder markers are not present, the system will seamlessly fall back on silence detection, ensuring that ads are still inserted reliably and without disrupting the listening experience.

✨ More accurate mid-rolls thanks to AI

The key advantage of this update lies in precision. By leveraging AI to understand the flow of an episode, Spreaker can now insert mid-roll ads in spots that feel more natural to listeners. This reduces the likelihood of ads interrupting sentences or breaking the emotional or narrative rhythm of a show.
For creators and publishers, this means higher-quality monetization with less effort. Ads placed at the right moment are more likely to be heard in full, improving listener tolerance and potentially increasing ad performance. For advertisers, it translates into better engagement, as messages are delivered at moments when listeners are more receptive.

✨ Automatic, Scalable, and Language-Ready

Another major benefit of the updated Auto-Optimizer is scalability. Because Sounder’s ad markers are generated automatically, creators don’t need to manually edit or tag episodes to take advantage of improved mid-roll placement. The process remains fully automated, making it especially valuable for large catalogs or high-frequency publishers.
This release applies to new content published in English, Spanish, French, and Dutch. As new episodes are published in these languages, they will automatically benefit from the enhanced ad-placement logic. As podcasting continues to grow globally, innovations like this highlight how smarter technology can make monetization more efficient, without compromising the quality that listeners expect.

We’re excited to announce a major update to the Spreaker Podcasts app: Achievements and Statistics are available directly on mobile.

After successfully launching automatic transcriptions for English content, we're expanding the feature to monetized episodes in Spanish and French.

What You Get

Transcriptions are automatically generated and appear in:

• The Spreaker app
• The Spreaker website
• Your Spreaker Embed widget
• Your RSS feed (following the Podcasting 2.0 standard)

No extra tools needed. No additional costs. It just works.

Better Discoverability, Better Monetization

The obvious benefit is improved search visibility and accessibility. But there's more happening behind the scenes.

We've integrated Triton Sounder technology to power these transcriptions. Beyond converting speech to text, Sounder extracts brand safety and contextual information from your content. This data feeds into the Spreaker AdExchange, giving advertisers better insights for ad placement decisions.

For you, this means better-matched ads and increased monetization potential without any extra work.

Availability

Automatic transcriptions are now live for all monetized Spanish and French episodes on Spreaker. If you're already creating content in English, Spanish, French, or Dutch, you're covered.

Don’t worry if your podcast is in a different language, automatic transcriptions will be rolled out in other languages soon.

We’re excited to share a new update that makes managing your show on Spreaker even easier! Creators can now add a custom text footer to the end of all their episode descriptions directly from the CMS.

This new feature is designed to save you time and keep your messaging consistent. Whether you’d like to include links to your social media, a call to action for your listeners, or important show notes, you can now do it from one central place.

To set it up, simply head over to the Show Edit Info page in the CMS, add your desired text in the footer field, and it will automatically appear at the end of every episode description in your show. And don’t worry, you can edit or update the footer at any time, and the changes will apply across all your episodes instantly.
