Core offering

Singing Machine Company designs, manufactures, and sells consumer karaoke systems organized into Smart Karaoke/Wi-Fi Series (Android TV touchscreen systems), Classic Karaoke (Bluetooth, CD+G, USB, casting), and Kids Karaoke collections, along with microphones, accessories, and replacement parts. The hardware is paired with the Singing Machine karaoke mobile app (powered by Stingray) providing streaming access to over 100,000 songs, and the company has expanded into B2B AI logistics SaaS via its SemiCab subsidiary (acquired July 2024).

Product overview

Singing Machine Company offers a portfolio of consumer karaoke products organized into a multi-tier product line, not a single unified platform. At the high end, the Smart Karaoke / WiFi Series (Platinum PLUS ISM9022 and Karaoke Hub 2.0 iSM9015) integrates an Android TV interface with native access to streaming apps (YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Pandora) and the first-party Singing Machine Karaoke mobile app (backed by Stingray content). The Classic Karaoke line covers standalone and casting systems — Groove DISCO (SML722), SML385, Singcast One (SMC2020), Singcast Max (SMC2035), Groove Cube Mini (SML654), and Cube Studio (SML678BK) — featuring Bluetooth, CD+G, USB, HDMI-out, and video casting. The Kids Karaoke range includes Sesame Street Karaoke Plush characters (Elmo, Cookie Monster, Abby Cadabby — SMK017/018/020), Sing Along Crew Big Panda (SMK014), and Kids Star Stage (SMK910). A full accessory line includes Wired Microphone (SMM205), Kids Wired Microphone (SMK105), Party Machine Mic (SMM548), and OEM replacement adapters/microphones for the ISM series. Following the 2024 acquisition, the company also operates SemiCab Apex, an AI-powered logistics SaaS platform for 3PLs and enterprise shippers targeting freight optimization and predictive analytics — a distinct business line now branded under Algorhythm Holdings.
