Turn live radio into a searchable website — automatically.
SmopLabs captures your broadcast, transcribes it to text, uses AI to extract the listings, items, prices, and categories your callers mention, and publishes a clean, mobile-friendly site after every show. Built for tradio, swap-shop, classifieds, and call-in programs on AM and FM radio.
Proof of concept — archived
This is what the live marketplace looked like. It’s been locked: you can’t open a listing, and no caller contact information is stored or served here. The data API is disabled.
🔒 Anonymized. Real items, real towns — every phone number removed. Non-interactive.

Why this one is offline
We built this prototype against a real public broadcast to prove the technology — end to end, in production, with real listeners. It worked.
We’ve taken it offline to respect the source and because the right home for radio-to-web automation is a station that wants it: running on its own content, under its own license, from day one. That’s the product we’re offering now.
If you run a show like this — country store, trading post, swap shop, classifieds, call-in — the pipeline below can be yours, branded as your station.
Frequently asked questions
Radio transcription, broadcast automation, and turning shows into websites - answered.
What is radio transcription to web?
It’s an automated pipeline that records a radio broadcast, transcribes the audio to text with AI, extracts the items and listings your callers mention, and publishes them to a searchable website — refreshed after every show. SmopLabs built and ran this end to end against a live AM-radio call-in program.
Can you turn a tradio or swap-shop show into a website?
Yes. Tradio, swap-shop, and radio classifieds call-in shows are an ideal fit. The pipeline extracts every for-sale, wanted, and free item callers describe — with price, town, and category — and publishes them as searchable web listings automatically, minutes after each broadcast.
Does it transcribe AM and FM radio broadcasts?
Yes. The capture-and-transcribe pipeline works with AM and FM radio streams, plus podcasts and live audio. It’s location-aware, correcting the regional place names that are common on local radio.
How fast are listings published after a broadcast?
Within minutes of sign-off. The capture, transcribe, structure, and publish pipeline runs automatically after each show, so your searchable site is fresh for listeners the moment the broadcast ends — with no manual data entry.
Can it transcribe podcasts and talk shows too?
Yes. Any spoken broadcast benefits. Podcasts, talk radio, sports call-ins, and community programs can be transcribed, structured, and published as a written, searchable archive that ranks in search engines.
Do you offer white-label deployments for radio stations?
Yes. SmopLabs offers branded, white-label deployments: the pipeline runs on your schedule, on your content, under your license, and is published as your station’s website or app. Email radio@smoplab.com to discuss your station.
Why is the proof of concept on this site offline?
This site demonstrated the technology against a real public broadcast. We took it offline to respect the source, and now offer the same radio-to-web automation to stations that want it — running on their own content, from day one. SmopLabs is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any radio station.
