One metric that we have available to all Simplecast plans is our Since Release chart. This chart offers a snapshot into how the five most recent episodes of your show performed in their first seven days of release, compared side-by-side. The ability to compare episode release performance is super beneficial in establishing benchmarks around how well an episode is going to perform upon release.

For most shows, an episode’s largest volume of listens will happen within that first seven-day period. But what happens if you want to see more than your five most recent episodes Since Release, or compare specific episodes from their release date, or expand the time period to a full month? Don’t fret, we have you covered.

We are currently rolling out a more robust Since Release report to Simplecast Pro and Enterprise. Publishers will now have the ability to see their highest performing episodes, compare episodes side-by-side, and expand the time period out to the first 30 days of release. In addition to being able to access this new report in the Dashboard, it’s also available via our ever-expanding Analytics API.
