Podstatus analyzes chart proximity and category overlap to reveal the podcasts that consistently rank near your show. View competitors worldwide or by country, compare category-by-category breakdowns, and track how your competitive landscape shifts over time.

The show competing with you in Spain is probably not the same one competing with you in Mexico. A podcast that sits next to yours in the Business chart may never appear in your Technology rankings. Without structured data, these differences stay invisible. Podstatus surfaces the competitors that actually matter, based on where and how often they appear alongside your show.
Switch between a global competitor overview and individual country markets. See how your competitive landscape shifts depending on region, and identify which shows dominate specific geographies.
Understand which categories put you in the most direct competition with other podcasts. Spot the categories where overlap is highest and where your show has room to gain ground.
Every competitor is scored based on how frequently they appear near your podcast and how closely their chart positions match yours. Higher scores mean stronger, more consistent competition.
Select one of your podcasts, choose a market, and Podstatus scans Apple Podcasts rankings to find shows that regularly appear close to yours in the same categories. Instead of a generic popularity list, you get a focused competitor shortlist built from real chart data.
Competitor suggestions auto-refresh as rankings update, so your intelligence stays current without any manual effort. Study naming conventions, category strategies, and ranking behavior from the shows that are genuinely competing for your listeners.
Pair competitive intelligence with rankings tracking and SEO analysis to understand why certain podcasts outperform yours in specific markets, and what you can do about it.
