By model

By framing

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“For better alternatives, consider platforms like Podbean or Libsyn Ads, which tend to offer more favorable terms for creators.” Claude Haiku 4.5 · Audio advertising · negative prompt · first choice

“Libsyn Ads (70/30 split, $24-26 CPM, transparent) | Published rates, IAB-aligned, established track record” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Audio advertising · negative prompt · first choice

“Safer alternatives: Libsyn Ads (transparent 70/30 splits for mid-tier shows)” Grok 4.1 Fast · Audio advertising · negative prompt · first choice

“Libsyn Ads: Published rates ($24-26 CPM), 70/30 split in podcaster's favor” Kimi K2 · Audio advertising · negative prompt · first choice

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

“Drawbacks: Limited to specific genres and audiences; low scalability for general consumer brands.” Muse Glimmer 30B · Audio advertising · negative prompt · soft negative

“Cheaper CPM (~$12-26), but bigger min.” Grok 4.1 Fast · Audio advertising · budget prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 39 of the 39 answers that named Libsyn Ads and are not a share of its labels.

How it is countedHide how it is counted

Every page libsyn.com exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated. Read October 5, 2026.

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when Libsyn Ads's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as Libsyn Ads, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

What a new claim receivesHide what a new claim receives

A new claim receives the current edition's vendor brief for Libsyn Ads by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:

where Libsyn Ads is named, by buyer and by framing, and which cells hold its first choices;
the claims the models make when they name it, ranked, with the strongest and the weakest quoted;
its vocabulary against the segment leader's, and the pages the models cited;
who was chosen in the answers that did not name Libsyn Ads, and every reason the record gives;
a battlecard for each top rival: the head-to-head split, why they win, and the reservation quoted against them;
one page of published figures cleared to show a buyer.
