Australian-owned audio platform AudioBro — which promises a smarter, more cost-effective way for hi-fi and home cinema enthusiasts to improve sound quality, without investing in new equipment — has announced it is now available worldwide.

The web-based platform is the brainchild of founder Ateeq Sheikh, who has spent the past three and a half years developing it. At its core, AudioBro aims to identify the weak links in a system — whether that’s room acoustics, speaker placement, subwoofer integration or calibration.

The paid service analyses customer-supplied data, including photographs, room dimensions, speaker layouts (from two-channel stereo through to full surround systems), in addition to calibration screenshots and acoustic measurements from third-party tools such as Dirac Live, Audyssey, REW and Anthem ARC Genesis.

From there, it prioritises the most critical issue and recommends a practical first step to improve performance. Once changes are made, users can upload new measurements to verify the results. As the company puts it: “Improvement is only considered verified after the listener makes a change and completes a comparable retest.”

A suite of tools underpins the platform. Photo Acoustics provides a visual room analysis, flagging potential reflection issues such as large window surfaces, while RoomMatch suggests optimal speaker placement based on the listening position. Tune My Sub offers guided subwoofer optimisation, and Fix My Room delivers a measurement-led diagnosis of the space.

Additional features include BassMap, which helps determine ideal subwoofer positioning based on measurement data; My Rooms, which stores test results across multiple spaces; and Guided Workflows, offering consultant-style reports and step-by-step optimisation paths.

Following its global launch in June 2026, AudioBro has also introduced a standalone Room Review service. Available separately from a subscription, it supports both self-guided optimisation and more hands-on analysis. Pricing starts at $97 for a quick review and rises to $199 for a more in-depth, measurement-based assessment.

The company says Room Review is intended as a room-first advisory tool rather than a replacement for on-site calibration. Users simply upload photos and measurements, after which the AudioBro team identifies the most likely limiting factor, then recommends a key first step and outlines practical next moves — typically within 72 hours.

Full access to the platform requires a subscription, offered in two tiers: Starter at $24.99 per month and Pro at $49.99 per month, with annual plans priced at $199.90 and $399.90, respectively.

Early adopters, however, can secure lifetime access for a one-off fee of $199 (Starter) or $299 (Pro).
