Just landed back in the UK ready for the @PodcastShowLDN to the news @Audioboom is now the number 1 audio and video podcast publisher in the world on @PodscribeAi
A busy Q1 also saw new commercial partnerships with Spotify and Apple - providing new monetization routes in video.
Video podcast monetization has always lagged audio. Our goal is to create medium term value parity in audio and video, and these partnerships are a great start

Today @Audioboom released our 2025 Trading Update - it was another strong year of growth with record financial performance and some transformative operational achievements.
Let's start with the numbers...
Our current monetization engine for audio-only generates around $71 RPM on average. For video it's less than half of that.
With Spotify we'll have more options to monetize video content - helping to close that value gap and make us the go-to video platform too
