VERDICT

Should I use PodMatch: Matching Hosts and Guests for Podcast Interviews?

PodMatch works like a dating app by matching podcast hosts and guests for podcast interviews while automating all the administrative functions. - podmatch.com

Depends. Buy it if you book interviews often or pitch yourself as a guest regularly — users rate it 4.9/5 and hosts report real payouts. Skip it if you podcast casually, lack an RSS feed, or only need a few guests a year.

Confidence

Medium. Based on ~20 public sources; pricing figures thin and several community threads truncated in extraction.
