About this Applet

Notify your team in Slack about new podcast episodes as soon as OP3 measures them. When OP3's New episode measured trigger fires for a show you watch, this Applet posts a message to the Slack channel you choose containing the episode title, publication time, and a link to the show's OP3 stats page. It's ideal for podcast producers and teams who want immediate visibility into new episodes from OP3 in Slack. Note: Customize the message to fit your tone.

About OP3

OP3 is a free, open-source podcast analytics service built around a download-measuring prefix. Podcasters put https://op3.dev/e/ in front of the episode file URLs in their feed, and OP3 counts the downloads — no signup or login involved, and existing prefixes can stay in place. Every measured show gets a free public stats page with industry-standard download metrics, breakdowns by app and geography, and spreadsheet exports covering full history. The numbers are published openly and listener privacy comes first: raw IP addresses are never stored, only a rotating secure hash.
