Audacy

name: Audacy
description: Audacy, Inc. is a U.S. multi-platform audio and entertainment company that operates the country's second-largest
  radio group alongside the Audacy streaming app, a major podcast network, and the Amperwave audio ad-tech and distribution
  platform. Formerly known as Entercom (rebranded to Audacy on March 30, 2021), the company filed prepackaged Chapter 11 bankruptcy
  on January 7, 2024 and emerged on September 30, 2024 as a privately held company after equitizing approximately $1.6 billion
  of funded debt and reducing total debt from roughly $1.9 billion to $350 million. The current portfolio spans ~230 radio
  brands across 47 markets, 200+ million monthly listeners, ~2 billion annual podcast downloads, and the Cadence13, Pineapple
  Street Studios, Podcorn, and BetMGM Network (formerly BetQL) audio brands. There is no public developer API, no published
  OpenAPI, and no GitHub organization with public repositories; integration is brokered through ad sales, programmatic marketplaces,
  and the Amperwave platform.

  description: Audacy.com and the Audacy mobile apps deliver live radio, podcasts, sports play-by-play, and exclusive stations
    across iOS, Android, and connected devices. The product is a consumer streaming surface, not a developer product; there
    is no public API or OpenAPI definition. Access for third parties is through partner integrations (Sonos Radio U.S. distribution,
    Amazon DSP for advertising) rather than direct API calls.
