OUR STORY
is our mission
When Nick, a radio journalist, ran into his old friend Preben, a software engineer, while working on a community radio project in Africa in the late 00s, he shared his frustration with finding suitable audio editing software. It needed to be simple, intuitive, reliable, affordable, but most importantly, it needed to meet the unique needs of audio storytellers.
A year later, back home in Copenhagen, Nick gave an early prototype to his colleagues at The Danish Broadcasting Corporation (DR), but instead of just testing it, they immediately started using it on broadcast projects. Hindenburg was born...
looking forward
and the story continues
Stories define us. They have power. But our collective human story will only be complete if everyone has a voice. That is why we at Hindenburg believe that everyone, regardless of technical expertise, should have access to a professional tool that lets them easily share their stories with the world.
And that mission continues as we keep refining our products, making them even easier to use, automating more and more technical and repetitive tasks that thwart creativity, listening to our community and always keeping in mind that “it’s all about the story.” ...
They have supported me and others working in non-profit media in Southern Africa for years, enabling many people to speak up and tell their own stories.
Giving back
being part of a community
Hindenburg began from the community radio experience in Africa, and we are happy to make our products available at low and no cost to those same communities, as well as to non-profits worldwide. We are proud of our products, but we are even more proud of the community that uses them to tell thousands of new stories every day. From grade schools to college campuses, from podcasters to audiobook narrators and internationally syndicated radio stations, to you. We can’t wait to hear the stories you’ll tell next.
