Buzzsprout is a podcast hosting platform that handles hosting, distribution, promotion, and analytics for podcasters - uploading and optimizing audio, publishing an RSS feed, listing shows in directories like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and reporting on plays. Buzzsprout also exposes a documented public REST API (base https://www.buzzsprout.com/api) so third parties can programmatically read and manage the podcasts and episodes on an account. The API is RESTful, JSON-serialized, SSL-only, and authenticated with a per-account token.
