Key Metrics

  • Total Plays — How many times episodes were started

  • Unique Listeners — Number of individual users who played content

  • Completion Rate — Percentage of listeners who finish episodes

  • Average Listen Duration — How long listeners typically engage

  • Drop-off Points — Where listeners stop playing (identifies boring segments)

Episode-Level Analytics

See performance for individual episodes:

  • Which episodes attract the most listeners

  • Time-of-day patterns for on-demand listening

  • Platform breakdown (iOS vs. Android)

  • Geographic distribution of listeners

High play counts with low completion rates suggest misleading titles or slow intros. Hook listeners in the first 60 seconds.

Using the Data

Apply these insights to improve content:

  • Promote top-performing episodes more heavily

  • Study successful episodes to identify patterns (topics, length, format)

  • Cut episodes that consistently underperform

  • Schedule new releases when your audience is most active
