The ‘Tell Me Why’ feature leverages artificial intelligence to determine compatibility between a Pro user's campaign goals and any podcast in the Podchaser database. This new feature helps evaluate whether a particular podcast will be a good fit for a given campaign and provides tailored advice on writing impactful pitches. This article will explore the benefits of this feature, how it works, and its limitations.



Why The "Tell Me Why" Is A Game-Changer

The “Tell Me Why” feature leverages advanced A.I. to provide actionable insights in seconds which is greatly valuable for Pro users:

  • Fit Assessment: Quickly assess whether a podcast aligns with your campaign goals.

  • Detailed Rationale: Receive explanations for the chosen audience, content, and more.

  • Pitch Recommendations: Get tailored advice to improve outreach strategy.

  • Save for Later: Insights are saved on the podcast page for easy retrieval.

This feature saves time that would otherwise be spent on research, allowing Pro users to focus on strategy and other business needs.



How Does It Work?


Using the “Tell Me Why” feature is straightforward:

1. Visit a Podcast Page: On any podcast page, look for the “Tell Me Why” button.



2. Create a Campaign: For first-time users, clicking the button will begin a new campaign. Start by outlining your campaign goals. You may also use the provided sample prompt as a guide.



3. Compare and Analyze: 'Tell Me Why' evaluates key podcast details—such as the title, description, audience metrics, recent episodes, and ad rates—to assess compatibility with your campaign and craft customized pitch suggestions.

4. Reuse or Create New Campaigns: For repeated use, you can choose from previously saved campaigns or create a new one. You can also edit or delete existing campaigns.

What To Do When Results Aren't Satisfactory?

Like any technology, AI is a work in progress and may produce imperfect results. Sometimes, results may look skewed or even incomplete. If this happens:

  • Refine Your Prompt: Modify the objectives for your campaign for an appropriate and accurate result.

  • Retry the Process: Restart the tool to get new results and different data analyses.

  • Report Issues: For any additional issues, users can raise a bug report and we'll ensure the team is informed. You can also contact us via email or connect directly with your dedicated Client Success Manager (CSM) for Pro users.



    TIP: To get the best results, Pro users can utilize the provided sample prompt as a guide and ensure that inputs are specific and aligned when drafting campaign goals.

Limitations to Keep in Mind

While the “Tell Me Why” feature is a powerful tool, there are some limitations to keep in mind:

  • Desktop-Only: This feature is only supported on desktop devices.

  • Campaign and Daily Limits: Maximum campaign limit set at 100 per user. After reaching this number, users cannot create a new campaign unless they delete existing campaigns. The number of insights a user can generate is up to 100 per day, which resets at midnight.

  • Character Restrictions: Headlines of the campaigns are limited to 50 characters, and campaign descriptions provide up to 1,000 characters.

  • Results Availability: Insights are stored under individual podcast pages and cannot be viewed in list or table formats.
