Marketers use the Casted platform to host, organize, distribute, and measure the performance of their branded podcast shows and episodes. Casted’s growing list of customers already includes notable brands like Drift, Pendo, Terminus, and LogicGate.

“We signed with Casted for the daily #FlipMyFunnel podcast early-on because it’s the first podcasting platform I have seen that is made for brand marketers. It provides advanced analytics into our show and it’s a central place to manage and activate each episode,” said Terminus Chief Evangelist and Co-Founder Sangram Vajre. “Casted allows marketers to be more efficient and strategic about using our podcasts to grow our audiences.”
