When to pick Apple Podcasts
Owner-side Apple Podcasts analytics over the Podcasts Connect Reporter protocol: plays, unique and engaged listeners, followers, and per-episode listening for a show you own. Not the public iTunes catalog — this is the data Apple's hosting API does not expose.
When to pick GitHub
Full GitHub access from Claude. Browse repos, read PRs, open issues, check CI runs, review diffs — without switching tabs.
