Firstory is a podcast hosting and monetization platform for creators, holding the leading share of the Mandarin-language podcast market and a growing presence across the Asia-Pacific region with over 14,000 shows. Creators upload an episode once and distribute it to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, KKBOX, YouTube, Amazon Music, Pocket Casts, and more than ten other players, then use AI Studio to auto-generate transcripts, summaries, highlights, and newsletter drafts. Firstory layers on second-by-second analytics, dynamic ad insertion, membership subscriptions, listener donations, cross-promotion, a personal website builder, the Flink universal link, and embeddable players. It does not publish a public developer API; this profile captures the company's public surface and infrastructure signals.
