Newsworthy.ai today announced the launch of Podcast PR at podcastpr.news, a product that transforms each new podcast episode into a newsroom-ready press release and distributes it through the Newsworthy.ai and Newsramp.com networks. The service aims to bridge the gap between podcast content and press coverage, ensuring that newsworthy conversations reach a broader audience.
Podcast PR works by connecting a show's RSS feed once. When a new episode goes live, the system transcribes the audio, drafts a professional release from the actual conversation, and routes it for human review before publication. Each published credit produces a full press package, including a news-style headline, a five-paragraph body of roughly 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 a feed exposes Podcasting 2.0 chapter art.
According to Newsworthy.ai, quotes are pulled directly from what was said on the episode, and the system does not invent attributed quotes or unsupported claims. Publishers retain control: every draft can be edited, then submitted for editorial review before publication and distribution. The process follows three steps: connect a feed, draft from the transcript, and review and publish. A free Newsworthy.ai account is required to review and submit releases.
The service benefits hosts, guests, and brands by turning every episode into a discoverable news asset. "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."
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 and are public, timestamped, entity-rich, and permanently archived. This format is designed for indexing by Google and for discoverability by AI platforms such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini. Behind the scenes, releases are scored for SEO, factual density, and semantic clarity.
"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 substantial savings available through multi-credit packages for frequent podcasters. The service is built for independent podcasters, brands and founders who run a show as a proof point for their expertise, and 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.
