Podcast Name Checker

Paste a podcast name below to check Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Podchaser, Google, a .com domain, and Instagram in one pass.

Why check availability before you record a single episode

You will spend hundreds of hours building brand equity around your podcast name. Every episode, social post, newsletter, and guest ask-out will mention it. If you discover mid-launch that another show has the same name (or worse, that a trademark holder wants you to rename), you have to redo your cover art, your feed URL, your website, and your search footprint.

A five-minute availability check up front prevents weeks of rework later. Check the major directories, check the domain, check the social handles, and lock down what you can.

Frequently asked questions

People also ask.

Search the exact name on Apple Podcasts and Spotify first, since those two directories cover the vast majority of listeners. Then search Google with the phrase "[name] podcast" to catch shows hosted elsewhere. Finally, check whether the .com domain and the Instagram / TikTok handles are free. Our checker runs all of these in one click.
