IRIAM Inc., a subsidiary of DeNA, launched a terrestrial radio program tied to its V-live communication app IRIAM. "IRIAM presents Enter a Stream Title!" began airing on Radio Kansai on Sunday, October 4, 2026, in a 23:15 to 23:30 slot. The run is set for 13 episodes, planned for October through December 2026. From Sunday, October 11, winning livers from the in-app event "IRIAM Ground-Wave Radio Program Personality Audition" appear as main personalities. The show takes its name from the "Enter a stream title" prompt that appears when a user starts a stream on IRIAM. Each appearing liver plans the title for their own episode and builds the program with IRIAM operations staff and radio production staff. The format covers their regular streaming work plus segments built around each liver's personality. Watanabe Flower Musa is the assistant. Listeners outside the Kansai region can hear it through radiko's area-free function, and episodes are distributed on podcast apps after broadcast.
IRIAM Inc. describes itself as operating under the mission "casting a spell that connects hearts." Its app lets a user become a character and stream from a single smartphone without character modeling work, using one illustration, which the company compares to becoming a VTuber.
The service launched in October 2018. Cumulative downloads stand at 6.4 million.
Two audiences get separate access routes. Listeners outside Kansai use radiko's area-free function, and Radio Kansai's podcast program page carries each episode after broadcast.
The company behind the app is a DeNA subsidiary. DeNA was founded in March 1999 and is listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime Market under ticker code 2432. IRIAM Inc. is headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo, with Shinya Masuda as representative director. DeNA's representative director, president and CEO is Tomoko Namba.
The livers build each episode alongside IRIAM operations staff and radio production staff, then appear as main personalities from Sunday, October 11.
