Today, we’re excited to announce the next evolution of our Pro Plan — rebuilt from the ground up to give professional broadcasters, community stations, and growing media brands a complete radio streaming platform in one integrated package.
For over 16 years, Caster.fm has powered internet radio stations from our Manhattan data center on enterprise-grade infrastructure. The new-generation Pro Plan takes everything we’ve learned from serving broadcasters worldwide and packs it into two seamless platforms: a Streaming Control Panel to run your station, and a Radio Website CMS to grow your audience.
All on Icecast-powered infrastructure with no listener caps and no transfer limits.
What’s New in This Generation
🎧 Two Platforms, One Station
The Pro Plan now combines a full-featured streaming control panel with a complete radio website CMS. Your schedule, podcasts, on-demand content, and listener interactions stay perfectly in sync — no plugins, no brittle integrations, no duct tape.
🧠 Smart AutoDJ
Build playlists with flexible scheduling: rotation, timed intervals, hourly slots, or advanced rules. Control playback order, set playlist weights, and prevent duplicate artists. Professional radio automation without the complexity.
🌐 Web DJ — Broadcast from Your Browser
No software to install. Our browser-based Web DJ gives you dual decks, a crossfader, and microphone support directly from your control panel. Or connect your existing setup via BUTT, Mixxx, SAM Broadcaster, or OBS — both Icecast and Shoutcast-compatible encoders are supported.
📱 Branded Mobile Apps + Alexa Skill
Every Pro Plan station gets fully branded iOS and Android apps, plus a dedicated Alexa Skill. Your listeners can tune in from their phones, ask Alexa to play your station, and stay connected wherever they are.
🎙️ Podcasting & On-Demand Streaming
Publish podcasts with full RSS feed support. Episodes can be created manually or generated automatically from your playlists. Extend your station beyond live broadcasts with on-demand audio — listeners can replay content anytime, from any device.
🎶 Multi-Format Streaming
Serve multiple streams simultaneously in MP3, AAC+, OGG Vorbis, OGG Opus, and FLAC. HLS adaptive streaming ensures your listeners get the best quality their connection can handle, on any device.
🔌 Integrations That Work for You
Native webhooks and built-in integrations with Discord, Telegram, Mastodon, Bluesky, TuneIn, Google Analytics, and Matomo. Plus a generic webhook system for anything else you need to connect.
📊 Real-Time Analytics & SoundExchange-Ready Reports
Monitor listeners in real time with geographic maps, device breakdowns, and listening trends. Export CSV reports and generate SoundExchange-compatible royalty reports for US web radio compliance.
❤️ Listener Engagement Built In
Live audience chat, voice song requests, a visual programming calendar, and a song request system — all running natively on your station website. Your listeners aren’t just tuning in; they’re participating.
🔍 SEO & Social Sharing
Built-in SEO meta tags, Open Graph previews, Twitter cards, and search engine indexing controls. Your station website ships ready to be discovered.
Pricing That Scales With You
The new-generation Pro Plan starts at $80/month and scales across three package tiers (M, L, XL) with bitrate options from 96 Kbps up to 320 Kbps. Every tier includes unlimited listeners, unlimited data transfer, and every feature listed above — no per-feature upsells, no add-on fees.

Why Caster.fm Pro?
We don’t oversell our hardware. We cap station density below what the servers can handle. We run enterprise SSDs, high-core-count CPUs, and Tier-1 IP transit from Manhattan. We’ve been online since 2010, through platform pivots and industry consolidation, while many other hosts have come and gone.
This isn’t a resold Shoutcast server with a billing panel taped on. It’s an Icecast-powered streaming platform with a working relationship with the upstream Icecast development team, giving our broadcasters faster access to improvements.
And if you’re not ready for Pro? Our permanent free tier gives you 400 listener slots at 96 Kbps on the same infrastructure — no credit card, no trial countdown, no catch. It’s the on-ramp that’s served thousands of stations since 2010.
