Local news, weather and traffic,written and voiced for you.

Why local segments still matter.
Listeners tune in to a station, not a playlist. A short, current bulletin about their own town, their weather and their commute is one of the clearest signals that a real station is on the other end, and one of the hardest things for a small team to produce every hour.
Reporter is built for that gap. It handles the research, writing, voicing and mixing, and you keep control of the rundown, the voice and the schedule. Options like family-friendly wording and written-out numbers keep reads clean for any format.
Reporter credits on Radiocast plans
Radiocast hosting plans include Reporter credits: 100,000 a month on Small Business and 500,000 a month on Radiocast Max, with custom agreements on Enterprise and Reseller. See Reporter pricing for standalone plans and hosting plans for the bundles.
Questions, answered.
