RadioForge · The complete feature presentation

Every feature.
Shown, not told.

This is the full platform your station gets on day one. Real screenshots, from real stations, running it right now.

100+ listener & owner features 4 surfaces: web, app, desktop, car 1 admin panel runs it all
Smooth Jazz Tampa Bay: fully interactive home page
All Inclusive Radio: interactive nine-station home page
The front door

A fully interactive station site.

Not a page with a play button. A living home page where the music, the artwork, and every card update in real time. Smooth Jazz Tampa Bay runs it as a single station; All Inclusive Radio runs nine stations on the same platform.

  • ✓ Live now-playing with synced album art on every surface
  • ✓ Layouts that adapt from one station to a hundred
  • ✓ Hosts, shows, news, videos, podcasts, and custom pages
  • ✓ Favorites, genre filters, light and dark themes
Thasis Radio Network installed app: live jukebox and tab bar
The installable app

A real app. No app store.

Your station installs from the browser on iPhone, Android, Mac, and PC in one tap, then opens full-screen with its own icon, tab bar, and lock-screen controls. No review queue, no download wall.

  • ✓ A live jukebox of every station with now-playing artwork
  • ✓ Swipe navigation, pull-to-refresh, genre filters
  • ✓ Lock-screen and control-center playback, just like Spotify
  • ✓ Updates reach every installed app the moment you publish
Car mode: big album art and one oversized play button
The car app

Made for the dashboard.

Cars are where radio was born. Car mode strips the interface to what a driver needs: big art, one giant play button, high contrast, zero distractions.

  • ✓ Giant color-coded station tiles, easy to hit at a glance
  • ✓ One-tap previous and next station switching
  • ✓ Full-width volume built for glancing use
  • ✓ CarPlay and Android Auto compatible via Bluetooth
Instant Replay rewinding live radio on Smooth Jazz Tampa Bay
The player

Rewind live radio.

This screenshot is real: the stream was playing, the listener tapped Instant Replay, and several minutes of live radio became scrubbable, with one tap back to live. No other radio platform does this.

  • ✓ A persistent player bar that follows listeners on every page
  • ✓ Five EQ presets applied to the live stream in real time
  • ✓ Sleep timer with a gentle fade, plus a real alarm clock radio
  • ✓ Saved songs, recent tracks, deep share links, one-tap buy-song
In-browser voice message recorder on Smooth Jazz Tampa Bay
Engagement

Your listeners, in their own voice.

A voicemail recorder that lives right in the site. No app to download, no number to dial. Thirty seconds of listener love, delivered straight to the station inbox.

  • ✓ An AI music assistant that knows the song playing right now
  • ✓ One-click song purchase on Apple Music, Spotify, and Amazon
  • ✓ Add any show to their calendar with weekly recurrence
  • ✓ Requests and shout-outs that reach the station in seconds
Song request site: browse the station's real music library
The request line, reinvented

Requests that actually play.

Not a contact form. Listeners sign in, browse your station's actual music library, and drop a request straight into your playlist automation. The song they asked for comes out of the speakers.

  • ✓ Direct insert into StationPlaylist and SAM Broadcaster
  • ✓ Search or browse the full library, A to Z
  • ✓ On-air dedications riding along with the song
  • ✓ Listener accounts, email confirmations, and a multi-station admin

One bar, every page

The whole toolkit, one tap away.

Ways to Listen, Voice Message, Requests, Instant Replay, and the Equalizer live in the always-on player bar.

The revenue engine

Your station becomes inventory.

Ads, fundraising, and sponsorships are built into the platform, sold by you, tracked for you.

01

Pre-roll ads

A sponsor spot plays before the stream every time a listener presses play. Each ad carries sponsor, CPM, and a date window, and every play is logged as a billable impression you can download and invoice against.

02

Fundraising drives

One network-wide message overrides every station's pre-roll for the length of your drive, and donation widgets drop onto any page. Flip it on, run the campaign, flip it off.

03

Banner placements

Sponsor banners go into widget slots on the home page, station pages, host pages, and a dedicated custom page. No sponsor? Rotate your own jingles and station IDs in the pre-roll slot instead.
