# PodDrop

> Two-sided marketplace for host-read podcast ads: advertisers upload 30-second scripts, creators claim and deliver them, platform holds funds in escrow until verification.

PodDrop connects advertisers with podcast creators for native host-read ads. Advertisers register, upload scripts with target show criteria, and fund escrow. Creators browse the marketplace, claim matching scripts, record and deliver, and get paid on verification. Disputes handled via admin review.
