We started Springcast because podcast hosting was broken.
Founded in the Netherlands. Built by podcasters who want to tell real stories, on a platform that doesn't profit from your listeners.
EUROPEAN · INDEPENDENT
- ✓No ads injected in your feed
- ✓Data stays in Europe
- ✓Compliance included, not upsold
The podcast-hosting market had a problem.
US platforms earn from your feed, your data, or their own ecosystem. We made that choice unnecessary: one European platform that serves the podcaster. Not a mission statement, that's how we build the product.
"That platform didn't exist. So we built it ourselves."
Nico Oud, founder
Nico made podcasts himself. He was looking for a hosting platform that did three things at once: decent analytics, European hosting, and an interface that didn't drive you mad. That platform didn't exist.
Most options came from the US. Analytics meant a download counter. Compliance was an afterthought. And when you asked where your listener data was stored, the answer was invariably an American data centre.
No garage-startup romanticism. No vision to change the world. Just a podcaster who built what he wanted to use, and discovered that thousands of others were looking for the same thing.
Four principles.
Your data stays in Europe
Hosted in the Netherlands. Your podcast data, listener analytics, team data, all of it lives in the EU.
No ads in your feed
We don't inject advertising. Your feed is yours, our incentives align with yours, not advertisers'.
Analytics that say something
Not another download counter. Social attribution instead of vanity metrics that tell you nothing.
Compliance included
ISO 27001 and GDPR, not an enterprise add-on — part of the product, on every plan. A signed DPA is available on Business.
THREE NUMBERS, NO NOISE
The milestones.
Now that you know us. Let's show you what we built.
You know who we are, what we believe, and why we built Springcast. The next step is seeing the platform for yourself.
