Newsworthy.ai today announced the launch of Podcast PR at podcastpr.news, a product designed to transform each new podcast episode into a newsroom-ready press release and distribute it through the Newsworthy.ai and Newsramp.com networks. The service aims to bridge the gap between podcast content and traditional press coverage, ensuring that valuable conversations reach a broader audience beyond the podcast player.
Podcast PR operates by connecting a show's RSS feed once. When a new episode goes live, the system transcribes the audio, generates a professional press release based on the actual conversation, and routes it for human review before publication. Each published credit produces a full press package, including a news-style headline and abstract, a five-paragraph body of 450 to 550 words, a verbatim pull quote from the episode transcript, four to six reader FAQs, category and regional targeting tags, and banner and news imagery drawn from the show or episode artwork. Up to 10 chapter images can be included when the feed exposes Podcasting 2.0 chapter art.
The process follows three steps: connect a feed, draft from the transcript, and review and publish. Hosts can edit the draft before submitting it for editorial review. Each published release uses one Podcast PR credit from the brand's balance. A free Newsworthy.ai account is required to manage feeds, brands, and credits.
Podcast PR offers benefits for hosts, guests, and brands. According to the company, every episode is an opportunity to promote not just the podcast itself but also the key topics, guests, and organizations mentioned. This approach gives hosts another way to deliver value to their guests, who gain visibility through a professionally distributed news release designed for search engines, AI-powered search platforms, and online news discovery. As people search for topics covered in an episode, they have additional opportunities to discover the discussion and the experts behind it.
"Great podcast interviews deserve to live beyond the podcast player," said David McInnis, founder of Newsworthy.ai and pioneer of the News Marketing discipline. "Podcast PR helps turn every episode into a discoverable news asset by highlighting not only the conversation itself, but also the guests, the organizations they represent, and the ideas they share. That creates lasting value for everyone involved in the episode."
The distribution is built for search and AI assistants. Every published release receives full Newsworthy.ai and Newsramp.com distribution, syndicating to hundreds of online publications and news sites. Releases include deep JSON-LD structured data at no upcharge and are public, timestamped, entity-rich, and permanently archived. This format is designed for indexing by Google and for discovery by AI systems like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini. Releases are scored for SEO, factual density, and semantic clarity to ensure the strongest moments from an episode surface in relevant searches.
"Every podcast episode is an opportunity to build awareness," said Mark Willaman, co-founder of Newsworthy.ai. "Podcast PR helps ensure the people, companies, and ideas featured in each conversation become more discoverable long after the episode is published."
Podcast PR uses simple, credit-based, pay-per-use pricing with no subscription or retainer. One credit publishes and distributes one press release from a podcast episode. Pricing starts at $129 per release, with savings available through multi-credit packages for frequent podcasters. The service is built for independent podcasters, brands, founders, agencies, and producers who need scalable press distribution across client shows.
Podcast PR is available now at podcastpr.news. Getting started involves creating or signing in to a Newsworthy.ai account, connecting a feed, choosing a brand, buying credits, and publishing the next episode as news.
