Roadmap & Labs

What we’re building, and what we’re only thinking about

Everything on this page is unfinished. That is the point of the page — the rest of the site only shows what actually works, so this is where the maybes live.

Honestly marked

Three stages, and the difference matters

“Building” means work is happening. “Planned” means we have committed but not started. “Exploring” means it may never happen.

  • Exploring

    Starlink connectivity partnership

    Satellite connectivity so that listeners without reliable mobile data can still reach the catalogue. Three pages on the old site described this as though it were a product you could sign up for. It is a partnership conversation, not a feature.

  • Planned

    Enterprise API & developer programme

    Programmatic access to catalogue and aggregated listening data for partners, development banks and NGOs. There is a working internal API; there is not yet a supported public one, documentation, or a way to get a key.

  • Exploring

    Blockchain-backed rewards

    Tokens are real and they accrue today — see Earn. Putting them on a public ledger is not built, and the old marketing page implied it was. Until that changes, tokens are a platform balance and nothing more.

  • Planned

    The perks directory

    675 partner offers exist in the old codebase and none has been migrated — there is no perks table and no directory route, so the vault described on the pricing tiers has nothing behind it yet. Also unresolved, and the reason this is not simply a data-loading job: the catalogue names Netflix, Spotify, Fenty Beauty and Peloton, and whether any of those was ever a negotiated partnership rather than a public offer is a question nobody has answered.

  • Planned

    The Awards Library

    53 curated awards for podcasters, creators, women in business, journalism and D&I, with open and closing dates — real editorial work that exists nowhere else. It is promised to four of the six paid bundles and has no route anywhere in the new site. The content is safe in the old repository; it needs a home.

  • Planned

    Connectivity gifts you can actually buy

    Twelve gifts are designed and costed, and none can be bought: no gift has ever been redeemed, every token balance on the platform is zero, and the carrier arrangements behind them are unconfirmed. /shop/gift-cards describes the programme without naming a carrier until someone verifies one.

  • Planned

    The community leaderboard

    The Earn wireframe draws a leaderboard with three named members and their token balances. Every token balance in the database is 0, across all 39 accounts, so there is nothing to rank — and inventing three names would be a fabricated claim about identifiable people. It appears when the ranking would be true.

  • Building now

    What shipped recently

    The old site had a New Features page that mixed things that had shipped with things that had not. Release notes belong here, where the distinction is the point.

    Previously at /new-features

No dates. A roadmap with invented dates is the same problem in a different coat — when something ships, it leaves this page and joins the navigation, and that is the only announcement it gets.
