Why they called us
Full-cast audiobooks with sound design are not podcasts with better microphones. The listening is layered, the files are big, and people press play in places with no signal.
What we built
Web app, mobile app, interface, backend, infrastructure and brand. Three years, and still under NDA.
The hard part
Audio has no forgiveness: a two-second gap is the moment someone closes the app. Getting immersive productions to start instantly on a bad connection, and to survive the tunnel, is an infrastructure problem that the person listening should never find out about.
What had to be solved
- Big audio files that have to start playing immediately
- Listening offline, then reconciling where you were when signal comes back
- Rights and territories deciding who can hear what
- A catalogue built for production, not just for consumption
Building something like this?
Fifteen minutes with one of the founders. If it isn't a fit we'll say so, which saves us both the second call.
