Why should I listen on Fountain?

Fountain is a more social way to listen to podcasts and music.

You can support your favorite shows and artists directly. Stream payments as you listen, send a zap with a comment, or take out a paid subscription, and the money reaches them rather than an intermediary. See how to support podcasts and music.

You can join the conversation with other fans. Comments, replies, clips and highlights sit against the episodes themselves, and because Fountain's social features are built on Nostr, your identity and followers are portable across the open social ecosystem.

Recommendations come from your network rather than an algorithm alone: the zaps, comments, clips and activity of the people you follow appear in your feed. See how to discover podcasts and music.

Clips, transcripts, summaries, video and livestreams are built in, on iOS and Android.

For podcasters and artists

Fountain also hosts, distributes and monetizes podcasts and music, and opens the whole workflow to AI agents. See Fountain for Podcasters and Fountain for Artists on the website.
