A podcast growth score is an AI-generated rating (0–100) that measures how well a show is optimized for listener discovery, algorithmic recommendation, and audience retention. PodSignal AI analyzes your RSS feed and Apple Podcasts data to score four key signals: title clarity, publishing cadence, description hooks, and category positioning.
The fastest way to grow a podcast is to fix the things that prevent new listeners from clicking — weak titles, irregular publishing, and descriptions that don't hook in the first sentence. Our free audit identifies your top two or three growth blockers and gives you the specific rewrites and fixes to address them.
