Host frequently asked questions:

  • Your voice will only be used to create ads for your show. It won’t be used for other purposes.

  • Yes, you can exclude categories, explicit content, and approve ads before they run. You can also opt out of campaigns.

  • Joining is free. ekoz.ai retains a percentage of ad revenue earned from your show.

  • ekoz.ai ads typically earn $20+ CPM compared to $6 CPM for prerecorded ads. They fill unsold ad spots, prioritizing your host-read ads.

  • Your voice data is encrypted and secured under U.S. copyright law. However, voice misuse outside of ekoz.ai is beyond our control.

  • Payments are based on your CPM price (cost per thousand downloads). Impressions are tracked on a monthly basis, and payments are sent through your hosting platform after impressions are delivered.

  • Yes, you set a "floor price" for ads. Advertisers bidding above your price will still pay the higher rate. The lower the floor price the more likely to fill the inventory. See the recommended pricing in the dashboard.

  • Ads are matched based on your selected categories, pricing, and demographics, in the ekoz.ai setup.

  • Not always. Advertisers will approve a generic script from provided talking points to create personalized scripts for each host. If they choose the verbatim option, all reads will be the same.

  • No, ads are exclusive to your show and cannot be downloaded or used elsewhere by advertisers.

  • Adjust settings in the voiceprint dashboard or review the recording quality of the samples you uploaded. Exclude other voices, background noise or music. Solicit other opinions. Contact support if the issue persists.

  • You can upload your version of the ad or opt out of the campaign. Keep your version aligned with the approved script.

  • Ekoz.ai automates ad insertions and stops ads when campaigns end. No action is required.

  • Lower your CPM or review your selected categories for better ad campaign alignment.

  • ekoz.ai creates host-simulated, personalized ads that feel authentic and achieve higher CPMs while scaling like prerecorded ads.

  • Currently, ekoz.ai supports one host per show. Updates for multiple hosts are forthcoming.

  • Set up separate accounts for each show unless you are the sole host. Updates for multi-host accounts are planned.

  • Currently, ads target U.S. audiences only. Expansion to other regions is in progress.

  • Yes, your direct advertisers take priority. ekoz.ai fills unsold inventory.

  • You need at least 2,500 monthly downloads to join. Misreporting numbers may result in account cancellation.

  • Podcasts hosted on Spreaker or Omny/Triton with 2,500+ monthly downloads can join. Migration options are available for other platforms.

  • No, ekoz.ai handles everything. You only need to approve ads if desired.

  • Ads depend on your setup (preroll, midroll, postroll). Defaults are 4 ads per marker unless adjusted by you.

  • No long-term commitment. You can cancel anytime. Note: ekoz.ai supports limited hosting platforms.
