An app, not just a site
Listeners install you on phone and desktop, get a real car mode and a pop-out mini player, and keep you one tap away. No store, no download wall.
RadioForge builds your station a real app for phone and desktop, an AI prep room that writes show notes for your DJs, and layouts that scale from one signal to a full network. We build it, you brand it, and it runs on infrastructure you actually own.
No app store. No code for your team. No per-listener tax.
RadioForge is not a theme dropped on a generic page. It is a broadcast-grade product with an app, an AI room, and a network engine built in.
Listeners install you on phone and desktop, get a real car mode and a pop-out mini player, and keep you one tap away. No store, no download wall.
A listener assistant answers questions and takes requests, while the DJ Prep room writes daily show notes, song facts and shout-outs in your host's voice.
Layouts adapt from a single station to a hundred, with Station of the Day, a jukebox and pot-luck discovery that make a network worth exploring.
Instant replay, saved songs, sleep timer, alarm, EQ presets, share and one-tap buy-song. A media app, not a play button bolted to a page.
Live365, Shoutcast, Radio.co, Zeno.FM, TuneIn, iHeart, StreamTheWorld and direct streams, imported in minutes with live now-playing and artwork.
Your domain, your data, your branding, on infrastructure you control. Files you can export, not an opaque cloud you rent a corner of.
Most builders hand listeners a web page. RadioForge hands them an app. It installs from the browser on iPhone, Android, Mac and PC, with no app store and no review queue. Once it is in, it opens full-screen, remembers favorites, and keeps playing in the background.
Every morning RadioForge writes a full prep packet for each host: on-this-day facts, music history, trivia, caller hooks and shout-outs, then rewrites any line in that host's own voice. A listener assistant works the site around the clock, answering questions and taking requests.
"Neon Highway" was cut in one overnight session. The band slept in the studio lounge between takes.
1979: the first commercial cell call was placed. Tie-in, "calling all night drivers."
Welcome the overnight crew down at the docks. They asked for something with horns.
A DIY builder gets you a page for cheap. RadioForge gets your station an app, an audience engine, and a team behind it.
