Tunio review

Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026

Tunio is a Discord bot for relaying a radio broadcast created in Tunio into a Discord voice channel. It suits station owners who want continuous radio-style playback for a Discord community, rather than a bot for queuing individual tracks. An administrator creates a station in the Tunio dashboard, then starts it with the station’s broadcast UUID and the /play command. Listeners do not need Tunio accounts, and the same station can play on multiple Discord servers at once.

Its controls are focused and command-based: /now shows the current station and track, /status reports playback status, and /stop ends playback on a server. A Tunio account can also be connected using a public API key. The vendor describes audio relay as Opus at 48 kHz stereo. This narrow feature set makes sense when the source is a Tunio station and the goal is persistent radio playback; it is not positioned as a general-purpose Discord music queue. Teams seeking track-by-track queue controls or playback from other services should consider a different tool.

According to the vendor’s pricing page, users select a plan and obtain a monthly cost, so the cost requires a sales inquiry rather than a listed amount. The published page does not provide bot-specific limits, making it harder to evaluate cost against expected use before contacting the vendor. Support is listed by email, with 24/7 support indicated. Tunio is a fit for station owners already broadcasting through Tunio who need that stream in Discord; communities looking for a standalone music source or transparent self-serve pricing are less well matched.
