What is PlaylistSupply?
PlaylistSupply is a real-time search engine for Spotify and YouTube playlists and curators, giving artists direct access to thousands of verified playlist contacts. Instead of guessing or relying on outdated static lists, users can type in any keyword, genre, or artist name and instantly find high-quality playlists and curators who are actively supporting similar artists.
You can see the curator’s contact info, playlist description, follower count, and more, allowing you to build relationships and run outreach campaigns on your own terms.
PlaylistSupply’s Health Score and PlaylistVet features also help check whether playlists are legitimate, active, and safe for submissions. That means no fake followers, no “bot” lists, and no paying for placements that lead nowhere.
It’s a data-driven platform, not a middleman, which is exactly why professionals and labels rely on it.
What is Apolone?
Apolone is marketed as a playlist marketing platform that runs campaigns for artists. Instead of giving you data or contact access, it uses “fan matching” to decide which playlists your song should be submitted to, and then runs the process internally.
While that might sound appealing to artists who want a hands-off approach, it also means you have no visibility into:
- Which playlist curators are actually being contacted
- How curators are selected or verified
- What playlists your music going to
- Whether placements are truly organic or filled with bots and fake streams
Apolone operates more like a closed-door campaign service, where you pay a hefty price for results without ever seeing the data behind them.
New Feature: PlaylistSupply’s YouTube Playlist Finder
In addition to being the first Spotify playlist search engine, PlaylistSupply now offers a powerful YouTube Playlist Search feature, giving users the same real-time access to YouTube playlist curators and contact information.
With this new feature, you can:
- Discover YouTube playlists by any keyword, genre, or artist
- Access YouTube channel curator emails and contact info instantly
- Identify playlists that feature artists similar to you
- Expand your reach beyond Spotify into the massive YouTube ecosystem
This update makes PlaylistSupply the only cross-platform playlist discovery tool that combines both Spotify and YouTube playlist data in one place. Whether you’re an independent artist, manager, or record label, you can now coordinate playlist pitching across multiple streaming platforms with real-time accuracy and zero guesswork.
Unlike Apolone, which locks you into its internal system, PlaylistSupply gives you complete visibility and flexibility to run outreach campaigns directly on both Spotify and YouTube.

Why PlaylistSupply Wins
- Full Control & Transparency
PlaylistSupply gives you access to the same data that bigger labels and agencies use. You can see the curators, reach out directly, and track results without relying on anyone else’s process. With Apolone, once you pay, you’re blind to how the campaign is actually handled. - Real-Time Playlist Search (Now for YouTube Too)
Apolone campaigns rely on internal matchmaking; you can’t search for playlists or build your own network. PlaylistSupply updates data in real time across Spotify and YouTube, showing live playlists and active curators instantly. - Cost Efficiency
With PlaylistSupply, you pay once per month for unlimited search and contact access. With Apolone, you’re paying per campaign, often $60–$100+ per song, with no guarantee of placements or long-term networking value. - Industry Standard for Outreach Tools
From artist managers to indie PR firms, PlaylistSupply has become a go-to research engine for playlist promotion. It’s a scalable, repeatable solution that gives control back to artists, not a one-time campaign that disappears once it’s done.
Final Thoughts
Apolone might appeal to artists who want to “set it and forget it,” but that approach often means limited transparency, potential to land on botted playlists and have your music removed from Spotify, no access to YouTube playlists, no contact ownership, and no repeatable strategy. Once your campaign ends, you’re back at square one.
PlaylistSupply, on the other hand, enables you to build long-term relationships with real curators and develop a self-sustaining playlist outreach system across both Spotify and YouTube.
Suppose you’re serious about running effective playlist campaigns and want real insight instead of mystery AI claims. In that case, PlaylistSupply remains the smarter, more transparent, and ultimately more powerful tool for modern artists.
