Descriptiontext

Voxnest is a private audio technology company headquartered in San Antonio, Texas (20880 Stone Oak Pkwy), operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of iHeartMedia. Founded in 2018 and employing 11-50 staff, the company provides podcasting and digital audio technology infrastructure to three primary customer segments: radio broadcasters, podcasters, and online streaming music services. Its core platform delivers streaming, hosting, measurement, and advertising services, and it operates two sub-brands within its family of companies: Spreaker (a podcast creation and hosting platform) and BlogTalkRadio (an audio streaming and radio content platform).

The company's technology stack is built on Amazon Web Services for cloud infrastructure and WP Engine for web hosting, with a broad DSP/SSP integration footprint across programmatic audio advertising (Triton Digital, AdsWizz, Magnite, Xandr, Audiohook, SoundStack, Equativ, Instreamatic, and others) plus European partners Global Radio Services, Soundcast, and Radio Net Media. Voxnest participates in the IAB Europe Transparency & Consent Framework (ID 1168), enabling it to operate as a privacy-compliant sub-processor in EU-regulated audio advertising markets across the US, UK, France, and Canada. No proprietary AI/ML capabilities, patents, or research outputs are disclosed.

Voxnest's revenue model combines subscription/recurring streams (streaming, measurement, hosting, premium) with advertising services. The company currently offers its Site and Internet Services without charge under a freemium model, reserving the right to introduce fees in the future. Go-to-market is sales-led, with direct digital access serving enterprise clients via the Voxnest Platform, Spreaker, and BlogTalkRadio properties.
