The Platform

News, talk radio and commentary in one place

The Platform is a New Zealand news and media app for people who want live talk radio alongside on-demand reporting and opinion. It brings together broadcasts, video clips, podcasts and written articles, so users can choose whether to listen, watch or read. The app suits audiences interested in New Zealand current affairs, public discussion and independent media.

Content for different ways of following the news

The live radio stream provides access to current programmes and conversations as they happen. When live content is not convenient, the app also offers an archive of podcasts and other recorded material. Short videos can provide a quick update, while articles allow for more considered reading. This mix makes The Platform useful for both regular listening and checking specific stories or commentary.

A focus on discussion and independent coverage

The Platform presents an editorial voice outside the largest mainstream media organisations. Alongside its broadcasts and published content, it is built around public conversation, giving users a place to follow debates and contribute to discussion. Its strongest relevance is for people who specifically want New Zealand-focused news, analysis and opinion rather than a broad international news feed.
