Show HN: Google Analytics for Podcasts (Open Source)

We are building the open source tool Open Podcast, which provides deep listener insights to podcast hosts.

Demo dashboard here -> https://openpodcast.dev/demo

Get insights about your audience:

- Episode performance: When do people drop out? - What are interesting topics? How long do people listen to it? - Age/Gender groups and their favorite episodes. - Supports custom graphs and SQL queries (everything is transparent and open).

Tech details:

- Open Source! We love to get feedback or contributions at https://github.com/openpodcast - We extract data from Spotify and Apple and store all raw- and historical data in a MySQL database - More data sources (e.g. hosting platforms, Google, etc.) are planned - The raw data can be crunched, correlated, compared, and analyzed with any SQL-compatible tool (we recommend and use Metabase for our Demo)

You can run the full stack yourself using Docker images or reach out to us and we'll set up a hosted demo for you. We believe that Open Podcast will be a valuable tool for podcasters and help them grow their audience and improve their podcast's performance. Give it a try and let us know what you think! We're curious about your feedback.
