Mac available now for $9.99. iPhone and iPad are in development.
Run a YouTube Live stream from your own media.
For musicians, comedians, podcasters, niche channels, and product streams, PirateRadio turns your loops, songs, song videos, and station IDs into a live channel you can run hands-on or leave running. Buy the Mac app once, then add optional in-app purchases for new video loops or basic music videos only if you want more material.

Join the launch list if mobile is your priority.A larger touch workspace for running the library, queue, and live channel controls without sitting at the desktop.
Built around the same always-on streaming workflow.Why people buy it
Made for people who want a live channel that can keep going without constant manual switching.
Your stream depends on too much manual switching.
Loops, songs, song videos, promos, stream keys, and health checks end up spread across different tools and tabs.
You can let the channel run and still step in whenever you want.
The stream keeps rotating visuals, alternating between songs and song videos, and dropping station IDs while you stay in control.
It is built around the actual YouTube Live workflow.
Import the media, sync ingest, monitor stream health, queue the next track live, and generate more content inside the same workspace.
How it works
Set it up once, then let the stream keep moving.
01
Load the media you already have.
Bring in your silent loops, songs, song videos, and station IDs so the stream has something real to run with.
Import the library from your computer.
Add silent loop visuals, audio tracks, music videos, and promo clips without rebuilding your whole setup.
Go live without juggling five other tools.
Loop visuals keep cycling behind the audio, song videos slot into the mix, and station IDs can fire on schedule or on command.
Make new material without leaving the workflow.
Use the optional purchases for visuals, and use Suno generation when you want fresh tracks from your saved tags and prompt.
What you get
The Mac purchase should already feel useful before you ever buy anything else.
The optional purchases are for making more visuals inside the app, not for unlocking the streaming workflow itself.

What this page is promising
No inflated claims, just the parts of the workflow the app is actually built to handle.
The point of PirateRadio is straightforward: keep a YouTube Live stream running from your own media, give you live control when you want it, and offer optional visual generation when you need more content.
Your library is the starting point.
You can load the loops, songs, videos, and station IDs you already have and start there instead of buying content just to make the app usable.
You buy the Mac app once.
The optional purchases are priced separately so you can decide later whether generated loops or basic music videos are worth adding to your workflow.
It can keep going without constant attention.
Let it rotate through the library on its own, or stay active and queue up the next song, trigger a station ID, and make new material while the stream is live.
Coming soon

FAQ
Questions people usually ask before they decide whether the app fits their workflow.
Is PirateRadio useful without add-ons?
Yes. The Mac app already handles the actual streaming workflow: importing your media, rotating loops behind audio, alternating in song videos, triggering station IDs, syncing YouTube ingest, and keeping the stream live.
What is included in the one-time purchase?
The $9.99 Mac purchase covers the app itself. That includes your media library, the live playback system, queue controls, YouTube connection and health checks, and the saved settings that let you reopen the stream setup later.
Are the add-ons required?
No. The optional purchases are only for generating extra visuals inside the app. They are not required to import your own media or run the stream.
Are purchases one-time too?
Yes. The Mac app is a one-time purchase, and the optional in-app purchases are one-time purchases too. There is no subscription described on this page.
Can I buy only the extras I want?
Yes. If all you want is a new generated loop, buy the $1.99 loop generation. If you want a basic music video, buy the $3.99 option. You do not have to buy both.
Does the app work for beginners?
Yes, especially if you already have media ready to load. The simplest path is to import your loops and tracks, connect YouTube, and let PirateRadio handle the live rotation from there.
Which add-ons matter for my use case?
If you want more background visuals in the loop deck, the $1.99 video loop generation is the relevant one. If you want to turn a song into a basic music video inside the app, the $3.99 music-video purchase is the one that matters.
Can I restore purchases?
Purchases on Apple platforms should follow the standard App Store purchase and restore model supported by the platform purchase flow. Any final release should expose a clear restore-purchases action in the shipped app.
Are there bundles?
No bundle is listed on this page right now. The pricing here keeps the Mac app separate from the optional in-app purchases.
Final CTA
Set up the channel once, let it keep running, and add more visuals only when you need them.
PirateRadio is a one-time Mac purchase for running a media-driven YouTube Live stream. Buy the app, load your library, and use the optional loop or music-video purchases only if you want more content inside the rotation.
