Websites and apps for radio and Tamil media
We build websites, live-streaming players, news portals and mobile apps for radio stations and Tamil media, in Sri Lanka and for diaspora broadcasters abroad.
Discuss your station or publicationListeners now tune in on phones and laptops as much as on FM, and many Tamil broadcasters serve audiences spread across Sri Lanka, Europe, Canada and Australia. A station needs a stream that starts quickly and stays up, an app listeners keep on their home screen, and a site the team can update between shows without calling a developer.
Common challenges we solve
Streams that drop or lag
Listeners leave within seconds if the player buffers or fails on mobile data.
No app on the home screen
Without an app, listeners have to remember a website address to tune in.
News that is slow to publish
Editors need to post stories and updates quickly, in Tamil, from any device.
Audiences across time zones
Diaspora listeners need schedules, programmes and shows that make sense wherever they are.
