Pocket FM doubles revenue to $500M run rate with AI-made audio

Indian audio platform Pocket FM says AI now powers 93% of its content and generates 99% of new titles, cutting production costs by roughly 80x. The company's revenue run rate has doubled to $500 million.

Why it matters: This is one of the clearest examples yet of AI content generation directly driving reported revenue growth at scale in a consumer media business, not just cutting costs. It's a data point for how quickly AI-generated content can become the majority of a platform's catalog once quality crosses a usability threshold.
