This platform analyzes people's tweets to make podcast recommendations. Based in Denmark, Hyvi launched Hear Your @Handle to help [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audio-newsletter1) users find podcasts to listen to that are a match based on their Twitter username.

To use, all you have to do is enter your Twitter handle on the site, and they will make podcast recommendations. You can also type in someone else's handle (Hyvi suggests Barack Obama, Elon Musk, Paul Graham and others) to see what sort of content the President of the United States or business magnates should be listening to.

In just seconds, you will get 10 different suggested podcasts. In addition to just your username, the platform will analyze 50 of your most recent tweets. It will then match you with compatible podcasts from a [database of over 20,000](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/podquest).
