HostRead IQ by PodLeads

Find podcast sponsors on Apple Podcasts and YouTube, and surface the best contact to pitch your show to.

Find podcast sponsors and who to pitch, with just one click. HostRead IQ shows you which brands are buying host-read ads on any podcast — and the exact person to email about sponsoring your show. ★ Sponsor Scan Open any show on Apple Podcasts or any podcast episode on YouTube, click the HostRead IQ icon, and hit "Scan for Sponsors." In about a minute, you'll get the list of brands running host-read ads on that show — no need to listen through hours of episodes yourself. Already-scanned podcasts load instantly, so you can research shows in your niche as fast as you can browse them. ★ Best Contact Finder For every sponsor found, HostRead IQ automatically surfaces the best person to pitch: their name, job title, email address, and LinkedIn profile. Copy the email with one click and start your outreach. No more digging through LinkedIn or guessing email formats — the right person, typically in marketing or partnerships, is waiting in the popup. ★ Lead building Every sponsor you scan is saved to your Leads page automatically. Click "View More" on any sponsor to see the full picture: company description, industry, size, revenue, location, social profiles, tech stack, and every contact found — so you can prioritize your pipeline and work it methodically. ★ Made for podcasters HostRead IQ is built for podcast hosts, producers, networks, and agencies selling sponsorships. The fastest way to land a sponsor is to pitch brands that already buy podcast ads — scan the shows in your niche and turn listening research into a sponsor pipeline. ★ Get started Install the extension, open a podcast on Apple Podcasts or YouTube, and run your first scan. You'll get 50 free searches and can upgrade for more.
