Case Study: Streema achieves instant, 20ms search across 85,000 radio stations for 8 million users with Algolia

Uses Algolia to power Radio-as-a-service to 8 million users worldwide

Streema is a global radio directory and streaming service (8 million monthly users, 85,000 stations across 200+ countries) that wanted an intelligent, fast search so listeners could quickly find stations, songs or podcasts across languages and alphabets as mobile use surged and they launched the Simple Radio app.

They built an Algolia prototype in under a day and rolled out a full implementation: indexed, typo-tolerant, context-aware search delivering ~20 ms results worldwide. The solution cut maintenance, scaled easily, improved discovery and user engagement, and benefited from responsive Algolia support.
