Which one should you pick?
Pick Blubrry Podcast Statistics if
You’re building around . Blubrry's been doing IAB-certified download counting since 2007, and the numbers are the kind advertisers will actually accept. You can bolt it onto any host as a redirect prefix, which is the move if your current platform has flaky reporting.
Pick Voxalyze if
You’re building around growth-focused publishers. Voxalyze invented Podcast Visibility Optimization — essentially SEO for Apple Podcasts and Spotify search — and the visibility module is genuinely the strongest in that niche. It's pricey, opaque about pricing, and not what you want if you mostly need download or attribution data.
