About Audible Hub

Audible Hub is the tool by which independent production companies, producers, agents and writers can submit original programme pitches to Audible Originals UK.

On Audible Hub, you can create an account that will enable you to formally submit pitches to Audible Originals UK. Currently we are only accepting pitches from production companies, producers, agents and writers. If you do not fall into one of these categories, we respectfully request that you do not submit your pitch through Audible Hub. If you are a writer, we ask that you have your agent submit via the Hub on your behalf, unless a member of the commissioning team has instructed otherwise. Pitches that do not meet the eligibility criteria will be deleted. 

Please note: Audible Hub does not accept pitches or submissions for audiobook content or narration work. If you are looking to self-publish your audiobook, please visit ACX for more information.

Our commitment to representation 

Audible is committed to being a destination for the best and most representative talent who will recognise it as a place where their ideas, creativity and difference will be nurtured and celebrated. All talent will thrive here, knowing that they are welcome, heard, valued and represented in the work we are proud to produce.

What We're Looking For

• We want to see dynamic, exciting pitches across a variety of formats. It must be clear how your show will grab a listener’s attention from the initial description through to the final episode.
• Talent is of central importance - ranging from known and celebrated actors, writers and presenters, through to the world’s greatest experts. We support exciting new talent as well as ambitious casting.
• We want storytelling placed at the forefront of your idea, whether that is through narrative writing or a format that gives a show clear structure.
• We are looking to highlight diversity, representation, and inclusion across all aspects of production. 

You will find more guidance on specific genre briefs in the pitch forms below. 

Please do not submit: 

• Audiobook proposals (please visit ACX if you wish to self-publish your audiobook)
• Auditions for voice over or narrator work
• Intellectual Property to which you do not have the rights

Submissions that fall into one of these categories will not be considered and will be deleted.

Submitting your Pitches to Audible Originals UK

Please use the form below to upload your details and idea. Please write a logline and long description and attach any supporting material to accompany your pitch (this can include scripts, pilots or episode breakdowns).

Please be aware that, if your pitch is successful, it may take some time to go from submission to final commission. You will receive an email confirmation of receipt upon submission, and then follow-up correspondence to let you know if we would like to discuss your pitch any further. We aim to get back to you as soon as possible, but due to the volume of submissions we receive, please be aware that this could take up to 12 weeks from submission.
