Comment (by arunaudioboom):

 Thanks @Soean

 '''Is the service is popular enough for core developers to have heard of
 it before? Is it “mainstream?”'''
 We are one of the largest podcast platforms in the world with audioBoom
 hosted content driving over 80m interactions a month.

 '''If similar services are already supported, how does this service
 compare in terms of size, features, and backing?
 '''Is there a current list of whitelisted providers for me to review?

 '''Does this service have a large following on Twitter, Facebook, or other
 social media?  Is its Twitter account verified?
 '''Our verified Twitter account has 62.8k followers and our Facebook pages
 has 284k followers.

 '''Is its oEmbed endpoint clearly established and properly documented?
 (Sometimes, they are just a developer’s pet project that may not be
 supported.)
 '''We have had oEmbed implemented for a number of years and this is
 already being used on wp sites.

 '''Does the oEmbed endpoint work with WordPress’ oEmbed auto-discovery? If
 not, could it be made to work with additional HTML tags or attributes
 being whitelisted?'''
 We are currently working with WordPress' oEmbed auto discovery.

 '''Does the service make an effort to build relationships with developers,
 such as through robust APIs?'''We work with developers and give access to
 our API which is documented here https://github.com/audioBoom/api

 '''How old is the service?''' audioBoom in it's current form was
 established in 2014

 '''Does it have a well-established Wikipedia article?'''
 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AudioBoom

 '''Has anyone written a WordPress plugin that leverages the service in
 some way, whether adding it as an oEmbed provider, creating a shortcode,
 or leveraging other APIs of the service? Do these plugins have any
 noticeable adoption or traction that would indicate usage and demand?'''
 We currently support an auto posting feature which will generate new wp
 posts with players when a user uploads a new piece of audio content. The
 majority of audioBoom embeds on wp sites however are now generated using
 oEmbed.
