Frequently asked questions

Which podcasts should a Automotive founder pitch first?

Start with EVBriefing: Market & Policy, China EVs & More, Fleet News Group; these scored the strongest semantic alignment to Automotive in our analysis.

How does PitchCentric decide which podcasts are about Automotive?

We don't rely on Apple Podcasts categories. those are too coarse. Instead, we generate a detailed vocabulary description of Automotive, embed it as a high-dimensional semantic vector, then compare to similarly-embedded vectors for every podcast in our catalog. The shows that score highest on cosine similarity are the ones whose actual episode content most aligns with Automotive.

What does a "Strong match" actually mean?

A Strong match (cosine similarity ≥ 0.60) means the podcast's episode topics overlap substantially with the Automotive vocabulary. Hosts on these shows discuss Automotive topics every few episodes; a guest pitch with a specific Automotive angle should fit naturally. Moderate (0.45–0.60) is adjacent; light (0.30–0.45) is crossover.

How often do you re-rank Automotive podcasts?

Every podcast's embedding refreshes when its description, topic list, or new episodes change. typically every 24-48 hours. So this page reflects the current state of the catalog.
