// Origin Story

Built in a spare bedroom
after missing the gig of a lifetime.

In 2022, Marcus Webb — independent audio producer, ten years deep into freelance editing — got a tip about a full-time host contract at a mid-size network. By the time he heard about it, the slot had been filled through a private Discord. The listing never touched a job board. It lived and died in a 200-person Slack workspace Marcus wasn't in.

He spent the next three months building what he wished had existed: a human-curated weekly digest of every legitimate podcasting opportunity he could find — scraped from production company newsletters, network hiring pages, creator Discord servers, LinkedIn deep cuts, and a network of scouts inside the industry. Aircheck was the result.

The mission is plain: democratize access to opportunities that have always been hoarded in rooms most creators aren't invited into. Every week, one email. Every listing vetted. Every deadline current.

"The best gig I ever landed came from issue #047. I'd been freelancing for six years and never seen that listing anywhere else."

"Issue #047 landed me a hosting contract I'd been chasing for two years. The listing wasn't on LinkedIn, Indeed, or anywhere public. Aircheck was the only place it existed."
