Public podcast sponsor evidence from RSS, show pages, and iTunes search
Podcast Sponsor Evidence Scraper scans public RSS feeds, show pages, and optional Apple iTunes Search terms for source-linked sponsor evidence. The Store tagline is: public podcast sponsor evidence; try emitResearchExport=false (skip the $7 export); paste 1 RSS URL and Start. It is not the cheaper report scraper sibling — compare Podcast Sponsor Evidence Report Scraper — and it is not Apple Podcasts catalog metadata (Apple Podcasts Scraper).
Try Input: 1 RSS URL, maxEpisodesPerFeed 1, emitResearchExport false. Live Store card: from $15.00 / 1,000 podcast enriched shows ($0.015 per show) + $0.25 per sponsor evidence row + $7 per research export. No Actor Start.

Sponsor evidence from RSS you paste, not catalog scrape or generic feed XML
Use this page when the job is source-linked sponsorship evidence from public RSS and show pages. Use Podcast Sponsor Evidence Report Scraper when you want that Actor’s live PPE (enriched show $0.005, evidence $0.05, export $2.50 on its landing). Use Podcast Sponsor Public Signal Report for public-signal reports. Use RSS & Atom Feed Extractor when you only need feed items, not sponsor evidence.

| What it reads | Public RSS, show pages, Apple iTunes Search | Public RSS for that Actor’s evidence rows | Apple/iTunes endpoints |
| Primary output | podcast-enriched-show, podcast-sponsor-evidence, optional $7 export | Enriched show, evidence, export events on that card | Show/episode/chart rows |

Use cases
- Agencies: paste one public RSS URL, keep
emitResearchExportfalse, and inspect enriched-show plus evidence rows before turning export on. - Researchers: add optional
showUrlsor Apple iTunes SearchsearchTermsafter the one-feed path works. - Recurring monitors: leave
emitUnchangedfalse so previously seen evidence is suppressed; no-change runs write zero rows / zero events.
Live schema required array is empty; rssFeedUrls defaults to the NPR Planet Money feed in schema. dryRun samples rows locally with no live calls or billing. Default memory on the Store listing is 1024 MB.
How is Podcast Sponsor Evidence Scraper different from Podcast Sponsor Evidence Report Scraper and Apple Podcasts Scraper?
Podcast Sponsor Evidence Scraper (taroyamada/podcast-sponsor-contact-intelligence) reads public RSS, show pages, and optional iTunes Search terms. Live PPE is podcast-enriched-show $0.015 (primary), podcast-sponsor-evidence $0.25, and podcast-research-export $7 (skip with emitResearchExport=false). Podcast Sponsor Evidence Report Scraper is a sibling Actor with a different live card (do not copy those prices here). Apple Podcasts Scraper is catalog/episode/chart metadata, not sponsor evidence. RSS & Atom Feed Extractor is generic feed XML. Use this Actor for source-linked sponsor evidence. Use Apple Podcasts Scraper for iTunes catalog. Use RSS & Atom Feed Extractor for feed items only.

Live fields are rssFeedUrls (default one NPR feed URL), showUrls (default empty), searchTerms (default one business-podcast term), maxEpisodesPerFeed (default 3, min 1, max 50), emitResearchExport (default false), emitUnchanged (default false), and dryRun (default false).

What is the cheapest first paid Try Input?
One public RSS URL, empty showUrls, empty searchTerms (avoid extra discovery), maxEpisodesPerFeed 1, emitResearchExport false, emitUnchanged false, dryRun false. Expected paid events: $0.015 per enriched show plus $0.25 per evidence row if found. Skip the $7 export on the first paid path. dryRun must be false.
What does a result contain?
README rows include billingEventName plus sourceName, sourceUrl, retrievedAt, sourceMethod, authorizationBasis, limitations, and prohibitedInterpretations. A sample lives in docs/sample-output.json on the Actor, which is not fetched as a Store resource here. There is no published output JSON schema on the Store page. Treat README samples as illustrations, not a live coverage guarantee.
How is Podcast Sponsor Evidence Scraper priced?
Billing is pay-per-event. The live Store card is from $15.00 / 1,000 podcast enriched shows. Live events are podcast-enriched-show $0.015 (primary), podcast-sponsor-evidence $0.25, and podcast-research-export $7. No Actor Start on the current card (a superseded older card had start $0.001 plus Result $0.006). README matches those three event names and USD amounts. Prefer the live Store card if a later README drifts.

podcast-enriched-show (Podcast enriched show) |
$0.015 | PAID per public RSS/show profile row with sponsorship research context. Primary. |
podcast-sponsor-evidence (Podcast sponsor evidence) |

podcast-research-export (Podcast research export) |
$7 | PAID per generated campaign/export bundle row. Skip with emitResearchExport=false. |
README event names and USD amounts match the live card. This page quotes live PPE only.
from $15.00 / 1,000 podcast enriched shows. No Actor Start.

How do dataset, webhook, and dry-run delivery work?
This schema does not expose a delivery enum. Dataset output is the billable surface when rows are written. dryRun true samples rows locally with no live calls or billing. emitUnchanged false suppresses previously seen evidence so unchanged runs can write zero rows and zero events.
Limits to keep in mind
- No required fields; first paid path still needs a public RSS URL and dryRun false.
- Skip
emitResearchExporton the first paid run ($7). - Not an outreach list, not purchased emails, and not a claim of advertiser intent.
- Unchanged evidence is suppressed when
emitUnchangedis false. - Respect RSS/show publisher terms and Apple Search API terms.
