AudioLinterAudioLinter's answer
Most loudness tools are standalone apps or require exporting to an external service. AudioLinter runs where podcasters already publish — WordPress — and fixes the file in place. EU-hosted, uploaded audio deleted within 48 hours, free analysis tier with no card required.
AudioLinter's answer
It checks and fixes podcast loudness (EBU R128, −16 LUFS), true peak (−1 dBTP) and dead air directly inside the WordPress post editor — no separate app, no file upload to a third-party dashboard. One-click repair, not just a report.
AudioLinter's answer
Built by a solo developer in Germany who kept seeing podcast episodes rejected or downranked for loudness/true-peak issues that a simple automated check could catch before publishing. Built directly into the WordPress workflow podcasters already use.
AudioLinter's answer
PHP/WordPress plugin frontend, Python/FastAPI backend for audio analysis (EBU R128 loudness, true-peak metering), Next.js marketing/account site, self-hosted on Hetzner (EU).
AudioLinter's answer
Independent podcasters and small podcast networks who self-host on WordPress (often via Podlove or similar plugins) and want their episodes to meet Spotify/Apple/YouTube loudness specs without hiring an audio engineer.
