Podcast agencies and sponsorship researchers use this actor to scan public RSS feeds, show pages, and discovery terms.

Input podcast RSS feeds, public show URLs, or search terms.

Get source-linked sponsor evidence rows, publisher links, and reviewable research export rows.

Store Quickstart

1. Start with the first input example below using dryRun=false.
2. Keep emitUnchanged=false so repeated no-change runs emit zero rows and zero charges.
3. Review billingEventName before scheduling recurring runs.

Sample Output

Output Fields

Every row includes:

• billingEventName for PAY_PER_EVENT charging
• sourceName, sourceUrl, retrievedAt, and sourceMethod
• authorizationBasis
• limitations and prohibitedInterpretations

Pricing

Phase 8.9 target pricing uses tiered events after Apify pricing cooldown clears:

• podcast-enriched-show: $0.015 per source-linked public show row without sponsor evidence
• podcast-sponsor-evidence: $0.25 per source-linked sponsor evidence row
• podcast-research-export: $7.00 per generated research export row

No-change runs must emit zero default dataset rows and zero billable events by default.

Compliance Guardrails

• Use public RSS, public show pages, and public podcast search surfaces.
• Use sponsor evidence only for source-linked research; it does not create permission for solicitation.
• Keep sponsor evidence source-linked and reviewable.
