About

Anchor was a free, mobile-first podcast creation and distribution platform founded in 2015 by Michael Mignano and Nir Zicherman, enabling anyone to record, publish, distribute, and monetize a podcast from their phone or browser. The platform grew to power more than 40% of all new podcasts globally by early 2019 through its frictionless creation tools and built-in distribution to all major podcast directories. Anchor was acquired by Spotify in February 2019 for approximately 340 million and was subsequently rebranded as Spotify for Podcasters.
