Co-Founder at Pocket FM

Building a New Entertainment Category from India to the World 100 Billion Minutes Streamed. 200 Million Listeners. 45 Million Transactions. What a journey! When we launched Pocket FM, our vision was simple yet bold: to connect the world through storytelling. Today, that vision has transformed into a global movement—pioneering audio series as the next frontier of entertainment. But this milestone isn’t just about numbers. It’s about you—our listeners, creators, and team. To our listeners, thank you for making Pocket FM a part of your lives. To our creators, you are the heart of this platform—your imagination drives everything we do. And to our team, your dedication and belief have turned the impossible into reality. At Pocket FM, we don’t just entertain—we push boundaries. We’ve redefined storytelling with technology and AI, transforming our audio series into a global hub of creativity and inspiration. This year, we’ve achieved remarkable growth. Our revenue soared from $21 million in FY 2023 to $127 million in FY 2024, with over 40,000 AI-powered audio series contributing more than $3 million. And we’re just getting started. What excites us most isn’t the numbers—it’s the cultural shift we’re leading. We’re crafting immersive worlds and unforgettable stories, redefining how people connect through audio. As we expand globally, our mission remains the same: to empower creators, ignite imaginations, and unite people through the power of stories. Thank you for being part of this journey.

When you first started, I was interested in working with you. However, it was clear that you prioritized finding low-cost voice-over artists over maintaining quality. Although your team reached out to me multiple times, the offers were extremely disrespectful and undervalued the work of any professional artist.

I wanted to share my experience with Pocket FM’s recruitment process. After being informed that I was selected for a second interview, I never received further communication or updates. This lack of transparency and follow-through is disappointing, especially after investing time and effort. Has anyone else experienced something similar?

Adjusted EBITDA losses of 32.5%, it means that the company is operating at a loss, not a profit compared to previous loss it's 32.5% increased. Definitely the revenue is up but it doesn't indicate that the profit is also up. Despite generating revenue of $127 million, the company is experiencing significant losses in its core operations.
