AirForge is complete radio automation in the browser: music scheduling, a live-assist studio with a cart wall, remote voice tracking and 24/7 playout that never quits. Run it on your own server, or let us host, back up and update it in the cloud.
Not a demo reel
AirForge is not a mockup waiting for its first customer. We built it for our own network and use it to program a live station daily: real library, real clocks, real voice tracks, real air.
What it does
The full broadcast day, from music library to the stream, handled in one system.
Build hourly clocks with music, spots, jingles and voice-track slots, lay them out on a 7-day grid with holiday overrides, and generate a full week's worth of playlists in one click.
Artist and title separation, tempo, genre and decade spacing, and rating-weighted rotation keep the station from ever sounding like a loop.
A live-assist console with now/next countdowns, one-click automation, and a 96-slot cart wall. Edit the log while it plays, without stopping the music.
DJs log in, see their hours, and record right over the song ramps from wherever they are, with a waveform, mic meter, trim and normalize built in.
Playout runs around the clock on its own, auto-skips bad files, and falls back to music before silence ever hits air. Nobody has to be in the building.
Ad campaigns with run dates, daily caps and dayparts, an as-played log with CSV export for royalties, and a full audit trail of who changed what.
Straight off our screens
Not concept art. These are shots of the actual product, on the station we program with it.
AirForge’s Live Board puts a full broadcast console in the browser. Mic, a web guest, a phone line and the music carts, each on its own channel with its own fader and cue. Segment and break timers count down in real time, so you always know exactly how long until the next break or the top of the hour. Run it live, stream it, or step away and let voice tracking carry the next break, all from the same studio.
Whether you operate AirForge on your own servers or choose our fully managed cloud solution, RadioForge provides the expertise, infrastructure, and ongoing support to keep your station running smoothly. Our team handles the technical complexities so you can focus on delivering great radio.
How it works
Drag your music in. AirForge measures every file, levels the volume, sets cue points, determines songs' tempos and keys (intros and outros), and even listens for where the vocals start.
Build hourly clocks, set your separation and rotation rules, and lay out the week once. Then generate days' worth of playlists in one click.
Run it live from the Studio with the cart wall, or flip on automation and let it stream 24/7 while you sleep.
Why AirForge
Traditional automation was built for one Windows PC in a rack room. AirForge was built for the way stations actually work now: distributed, remote, and never tied to a single machine.
