We are reimagining the traditional audio pattern to build an internet-scale platform and bring together communities to share stories and spread knowledge.

Our mission is to give voice to stories and wisdom. Pocket FM has grown to 15 million MAL (monthly active listeners), spending an average of over 100 minutes every day, while the total monthly audio streaming on the app counts to over 3 billion minutes. We are a Series C funded start-up backed by some of the marquee investors like Naver, Goodwater Capital, Lightspeed, Tanglin Venture Partners and others.
