Automated Podcast Listener Q and A Roundup
Every morning, WebRun opens Spotify for Creators, reads the Q and A responses, poll answers and listener comments on your recent episodes, groups them by episode with a drafted reply for each, texts you the highlights through Twilio, and posts the full roundup to Slack.
How do I collect listener questions and comments from my podcast every day?
Every morning WebRun opens Spotify for Creators, collects the Q and A responses, poll answers and listener comments left on your recent episodes, and groups them by episode. It drafts a reply to each for your approval, texts you the highlights through Twilio, and posts the full roundup to Slack.

How is each run configured?
Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it reply to listeners without me?
No. Every reply is drafted and left unposted in the Slack roundup for you to approve, edit or ignore. WebRun never publishes a response to a listener on its own.
Who gets the Twilio text?
Only the host number you save during setup. The text carries the count of new questions and the standouts, and WebRun never texts a listener.
Does it include poll answers and comments too?
Yes. Each run reads Q and A responses, poll answers and listener comments across your recent episodes, then groups all three under the episode they came from.
