Updates for May 2022

Hi there!

This is the 56th full month (4 years and 8 months) that I worked on Listen Notes full-time.

What’s new?

1) More work on new data fields & UI changes

In April, we added three new data fields-

  1. update_frequency: On average, how frequently a podcast releases a new episode?

  2. audio_length: The average audio length of episodes in a podcast.

  3. amazon_music_url: A podcast’s Amazon Music url.

In May, we added new search filters (update_frequency & audio_length) to web search (w/ Premium Membership) and Listen Datasets -

As we are adding more and more search filters, we have to make the filters UI compact. Therefore, it’s 2-column on desktop now :)

2) “Contact Sales”

We standardized the “Contact Sales” form for our enterprise products, which enables us to add more automation to our sales process in the future.

  • https://www.listennotes.com/premium/enterprise-sales/

  • https://www.listennotes.com/datasets/solutions/

3) Find podcast pages by Spotify url

Use website (w/ Premium Membership):

Use API:

POST /podcasts with the spotify_ids parameter

4) MISC

  • Faster server-side page rendering, e.g., more caching, more database query optimization…

  • Website/API will continue to work if Redis is down. Most improvements on system reliability are preventive.

  • Updated Python & Javascript dependencies for ListenAPIDemo.


@PODFEST EXPO
