What they are
Rev
Rev transcribes audio and video files using either automated AI or human transcriptionists, returning time-stamped text files, captions, and subtitles. It serves podcasters, journalists, video producers, and educators who need accurate transcripts quickly. Human transcription is notably more accurate than AI for complex audio, but costs more per minute. A free trial lets you test the AI tier before committing.
Spotify for Creators
Spotify for Creators is a free analytics and management platform for podcasters distributing on Spotify. It surfaces listener data including age, location, and listening behavior, and lets creators submit their RSS feed or host directly through Spotify's own tools. It covers the basics well but gives no data on listeners outside the Spotify ecosystem, which limits its usefulness for shows distributed broadly.
