LibreTime is open broadcast software designed for scheduling and managing radio programming. It offers a comprehensive set of tools for broadcasters to organize, automate, and stream their content over the airwaves or online.
Features
- Web-based remote station management – authorized personnel can add program material, create playlists or smart blocks, and stream in live, all via a web interface.

- Solid playout – LibreTime uses the open source Liquidsoap streaming language for reliable and precise playback to multiple outputs.
- Open, extensible architecture – stations are free to extend and alter all parts of the program code, under the GNU AGPLv3 license.
