In the wake of Chartable's December 2024 shutdown, many podcasters have been left scrambling to find comprehensive analytics and growth solutions. If you're among those affected by this transition, Podgagement offers a robust alternative that not only replaces Chartable's core functionalities but expands upon them with innovative features designed specifically for modern podcast growth.
Why Podcasters Need a Chartable Alternative
Chartable was once the go-to platform for podcast analytics, providing tracking prefixes, ranking data, and marketing attribution tools that helped creators optimize their growth strategies. With its acquisition by Spotify and subsequent shutdown, the podcast industry has experienced a significant gap in comprehensive analytics solutions.
Enter Podgagement – a purpose-built platform that addresses this void while offering enhanced capabilities for podcast growth and audience engagement.
How Podgagement Compares to Chartable's Former Offerings
Advanced Analytics & Tracking
While Chartable tracked rankings across different countries, Podgagement takes this further by monitoring nearly 34,000 podcast charts with real-time tracking on major platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify. What's more, Podgagement stores historical ranking data for up to five years, providing unmatched longitudinal insights that Chartable couldn't match.
For podcasters who relied on Chartable's performance metrics, Podgagement offers a more extensive analytics ecosystem with SEO tracking capabilities coming soon.
Marketing Attribution & Promotional Tools
Chartable's SmartLinks were valuable for tracking campaign effectiveness, but Podgagement elevates promotional capabilities with:
- Social proof image generators that showcase your podcast metrics visually
- Ratings and reviews image makers for compelling social media content
- Innovative NFC Podcast Beacon technology for in-person subscription acquisition – something Chartable never offered
- Automated monitoring of ratings and reviews across 175+ Apple Podcasts regions
These tools transform raw data into actionable marketing assets, addressing a limitation in Chartable's mostly data-focused approach.
Audience Engagement Capabilities
Where Chartable primarily focused on analytics rather than direct audience interaction, Podgagement introduces a suite of engagement features:
- Customized feedback collection through dedicated CastFeedback.com pages
- Voice message and written feedback collection with automatic transcription
- Direct review collection from listeners
- Personalized landing pages through FollowthePodcast.com and LovethePodcast.com
These tools create direct communication channels with your audience that Chartable never provided, helping you build stronger listener relationships.
Networking & Cross-Promotion
Podgagement introduces entirely new dimensions beyond Chartable's capabilities with:
- Cross-podcast recommendation tracking
- Collaboration opportunity discovery
- Guest appearance facilitation
This ecosystem approach fosters podcast growth through strategic partnerships – a growth vector that Chartable's isolated analytics platform couldn't support.
Making the Transition to Podgagement
Unlike Chartable's relatively complex pricing structure, Podgagement offers straightforward options with two primary tiers:
- Astro ($9/month): Focused on tracking podcast ratings and reviews
- Constellation ($19/month): Comprehensive package including rankings tracking, networking features, SEO tools, and feedback collection
Both plans offer annual payment options that provide savings equivalent to two months free, and all subscriptions begin with a 14-day trial period to ensure the platform meets your needs.
Why Podcasters Are Choosing Podgagement in the Post-Chartable Era
The podcast analytics landscape has evolved significantly since Chartable's introduction. Podgagement represents the next generation of growth tools, built with an understanding that modern podcasters need more than just metrics – they need actionable insights, audience connection mechanisms, and promotional capabilities all in one platform.
