Authentic voices and verified ad reads
The problem. A host's voice can be cloned from a few minutes of audio, then dropped into fake episodes or fraudulent ad reads. Across a network of dozens of shows, that risk multiplies, and advertisers notice when their brand ends up in audio the host never recorded.
What it costs. Podcast advertising is a multibillion-dollar market built on host trust. Voice-clone fraud and impersonation put both that ad revenue and your talent's reputation on the line.
The fix: authentic capture for audio. Prove an episode or ad read is genuinely your host's work and unaltered, with a record that survives re-encoding and travels with the audio. Fakes become easy to flag and disprove. Industry-standard and independently verifiable.
What you can do today
- Sign episodes and official ad reads so platforms and advertisers can confirm they're genuine.
- Flag voice-cloned or AI-generated audio passed off as a host's work.
- Give advertisers a verifiable assurance that their read aired as recorded.
The job it does for networks
You need to protect host voices and advertiser trust across many shows at once. Authentic capture gives every episode and ad read a portable, checkable proof of origin, your fastest way to shut down impersonation.
