About Adelicious
Adelicious, founded in 2020 by podcasters for podcasters, is the UK’s leading independent podcast hosting network. Our founders recognised the need for honesty, integrity, and fairness in the podcast advertising landscape. Their vision led to Adelicious, a platform built around quality inventory, excellent customer service, a podcaster-first mentality, and innovation. Today, as an invite-only network, we're the trusted choice for some of the world's leading podcasts, with a three-fold growth in listeners year on year. At Adelicious, we believe in a personalised, results-driven approach that ensures both podcasters and advertisers benefit from our hands-on expertise.

- Feb 24: Since the sale of Adelicious (now Audioboom), David McGuire has been busy working on a new creator intelligence tool called fanswoon. The latest version includes the ability to follow individual content streams (podcast, video, song, newsletters, etc) and track its data over time. David tells us that he’s also added an AI feedback to it, enabling the user to get a summary of what their fans think, as well as a summary of other recommendations.
