Free to listen. Always.
A CarPlay-first audio show built for the commute. The day's market, voiced by hosts who'll ride-or-die with you. On the drive, the bus, the subway, anywhere you've got your iPhone. Just hit Play — the shared briefings never cost a cent.
PortCall builds fresh shows for your portfolio throughout the trading day, and warms up again when the market does something worth hearing about.
Declare the symbols you care about. The free tier rides along with a curated default portfolio; paid tiers cover your tickers — the ones you tell us.
Premarket, post-open, intraday, and post-close, PortCall renders briefings for the tickers you like, with extra coverage on big macro days like CPI, jobs, and FOMC.
A whole-market intro, then a segment per ticker, built to play hands-free, duck under nav prompts, and stop clean. Just hit Play and drive.
PortCall is an Apple CarPlay app first and foremost, built for iPhone-carrying commuters. The drive, the bus, the subway, the train, wherever you've got a phone and a signal. Connect, hit Play, and let the show run.
Your tickers rotate through the CarPlay display with real-time quotes, so you see the number while you hear the story. A glance is all it takes.
No tapping, no scrolling, no reading while you drive. The show plays itself start to finish and gets out of the way for navigation.
CarPlay in the car, headphones on transit. Same show, same hosts, same personalized portfolio, wherever the day takes you.
Now Playing with rotating real-time quotes, your portfolios, the briefing queue, and the leaderboard, all clean enough to take in at a glance.
Four voices, cast as two fixed pairs. A briefing is co-anchored by one duo start to finish — never a rotating panel — and which pair you draw sets the temperature of the whole drive.
Anna distrusts a consensus on sight. If everyone already knows a thing, she wants to know why anyone is still bothering to say it, and she is usually the reason a story doesn't make the show. Perry grew up on a farm in rural Ontario, where a thing either works or it doesn't, and he'll let a great story run its whole length before asking how the money actually gets made. Between them, not much survives that shouldn't.
Chad sees a rocket in every chart and says so, with a conviction that's either contagious or alarming depending on the day — and, irritatingly, he's right more often than he has any business being. Joolz takes swings just as big, believes in every one of them for reasons Chad finds baffling, and can end an argument in a sentence. They used to date. They still finish each other's sentences, usually to contradict them. Joolz was awarded custody of the bearded dragon, Theta, in the mediated conscious-uncoupling agreement.

Welcome to PortCall, a product of Imperia Middleware Inc. (“Imperia Middleware,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the PortCall application and related services (the “app”).
You accept these Terms by tapping “Continue” during onboarding, where these Terms and our Privacy Policy are presented by link immediately above that button, and by accessing or using the app thereafter. Our Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference. If you do not agree, you must not use the app. Your acceptance is recorded with a timestamp and retained.
PortCall is intended only for adults aged 21 and over. You represent that you are at least twenty-one (21) years of age. Age is verified at onboarding by self-reported date of birth. Providing a false date of birth is a material breach of these Terms; if we determine that a user is under 21, we will terminate the account immediately and delete its personal data as described in our Privacy Policy.
PortCall delivers audio briefings about financial markets, generated automatically by artificial-intelligence systems and performed by fictional, computer-voiced host characters. A free tier provides briefings covering a curated default portfolio selected by us, which we may change at any time, including on a recurring schedule. Paid subscription tiers add briefings covering portfolios of ticker symbols that you select. The app is designed for hands-free listening, including via Apple CarPlay.
READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. PORTCALL IS AN ENTERTAINMENT AND GENERAL-INFORMATION PRODUCT. IT IS NOT INVESTMENT, FINANCIAL, LEGAL, TAX, OR ACCOUNTING ADVICE.
All briefing audio is synthesized by text-to-speech systems; the voices are computer-generated and do not belong to, and are not endorsed by, any real on-air personality. All scripts are generated by large language models drawing on third-party market data and news sources. AI-generated content can contain errors, omissions, outdated information, mischaracterizations, or statements with no basis in fact, and may differ from the underlying sources it summarizes. We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any content, and you agree not to rely on it as described in Section 3.
Quotes, options data, fundamentals, and other market data are supplied by third-party data vendors. Some data is delayed (for example, options data may be delayed fifteen minutes or more) and any data may be inaccurate, incomplete, or unavailable. Market data and briefing content are licensed to you for personal, non-commercial use within the app only. You may not record, scrape, extract, redistribute, retransmit, or resell app content or the data contained in it.
Paid tiers are sold as auto-renewing subscriptions through the Apple App Store. The price and renewal period are disclosed at the point of purchase. Your subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel at any time in your Apple ID subscription settings. Billing, payment, and refunds are handled by Apple under Apple’s terms; we do not process your payment information. Prices may change prospectively with notice as required by Apple’s policies. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app for personal, non-commercial purposes in accordance with these Terms. You may not reverse-engineer, modify, resell, or redistribute the app or its content, or circumvent the age gate, subscription entitlements, or any technical protection measure. In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the Apple Licensed Application End User License Agreement (Standard EULA), the Apple Standard EULA shall govern as to Apple; nothing in these Terms limits Apple’s rights or remedies under the Standard EULA.
THE APP AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” Imperia Middleware disclaims all warranties and conditions, express, implied, or statutory, including the implied warranties of merchantability, satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, quiet enjoyment, and non-infringement. No oral or written information or advice given by Imperia Middleware or its representatives creates a warranty. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or limitations on statutory consumer rights, so some exclusions may not apply to you.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law: (a) Imperia Middleware shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, or for any trading or investment losses, lost profits, or lost opportunities, arising from or relating to your use of or inability to use the app or your reliance on any content, even if advised of the possibility of such damages; and (b) our total aggregate liability shall not exceed the greater of (i) the amounts you paid to Imperia Middleware for the app in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim or (ii) fifty dollars ($50.00), or the minimum amount required by applicable law. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some may not apply to you.
Imperia Middleware shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, government actions, war, terrorism, civil unrest, pandemics, market data feed interruptions, outages of third-party AI, synthesis, hosting, or data services, and other technical failures or disruptions in third-party services.
You agree not to use the app: for any unlawful purpose; to interfere with the app’s normal operation, including through hacking, scraping, automated access, unauthorized API usage, or circumventing security, age-verification, or subscription measures; to extract or redistribute content or market data in violation of Section 5; or in any manner that violates applicable law or third-party rights.
The app does not currently offer public user-generated content features; the only content you submit is account information and the ticker symbols in your portfolios. If community or social features are introduced in the future, additional conduct rules will apply, submitted content will be subject to automated and/or human moderation, and we will comply with our legal reporting obligations, including reporting suspected child sexual abuse material to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children under 18 U.S.C. § 2258A. We may preserve or disclose content and account information where required by law or legal process or to protect users or the public.
We may terminate or suspend your access at our sole discretion, including for breach of these Terms or misrepresentation of age. Where an email address is on file, we will attempt to give notice of impending suspension, except where we believe delay could cause harm to Imperia Middleware, other users, other entities, or the public. Accounts determined to belong to users under 21 are terminated immediately without prior notice and the associated personal data is deleted. Terminations or suspensions may be appealed by emailing the contact address below. Termination under the Apple Standard EULA may occur automatically upon breach, effective regardless of any appeal procedure described here.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Imperia Middleware, its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, and successors from and against all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from or relating to your use or misuse of the app, your violation of these Terms, or your infringement of any third-party rights.
Except as otherwise required by the Apple Standard EULA (under which disputes with Apple are governed by California law and adjudicated in Santa Clara County, California), these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Disputes between you and Apple are controlled by Apple’s EULA; disputes between you and Imperia Middleware are subject to Delaware law and Section 16.
Informal resolution first. Before filing any claim, you and we each agree to send the other a written notice of dispute (to the contact address below, or to your account email) describing the claim and the relief sought, and to attempt in good faith to resolve it informally for thirty (30) days.
Arbitration. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the app that is not resolved informally shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, conducted before a single arbitrator. Arbitration shall take place in Delaware or, at your election, remotely by videoconference. Fees and costs shall be allocated under the JAMS rules then in effect. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Exceptions. Either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court, and either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in court to protect intellectual property rights. These Terms do not waive rights that cannot be waived under the law of your jurisdiction.
Opt-out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing support@imperiamiddleware.com with the subject line “Arbitration Opt-Out” within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms, stating your name and account email. Opting out does not affect any other provision of these Terms.
Class waiver. All claims shall be brought on an individual basis only. You and we each waive any right to a jury trial and any right to participate in a class action or representative proceeding. If this waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim must still proceed individually to the maximum extent permitted, and the remainder of this Section remains in effect. If arbitration is unavailable or unenforceable, disputes shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in New Castle County, Delaware, and you consent to personal jurisdiction and venue there.
We may update these Terms at any time. If we make material changes (changes significantly affecting your rights or obligations), we will notify users via the app or email. Continued use of the app after the effective date of changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
If any provision of these Terms is found unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision is severable and the remaining provisions remain in full force. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and the Apple Standard EULA, are the entire agreement between you and Imperia Middleware regarding the app.
You acknowledge that your use of the app is also subject to Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement (Standard EULA), and you agree to comply with all applicable third-party terms when using the app, including those of Apple Inc. and any external services accessed through the app.

Imperia Middleware Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes our practices regarding the collection, use, disclosure, and protection of your information when you use the PortCall app (“the app”). This policy aligns with our Terms of Service and our written information security program.
PortCall does not display third-party advertisements and we do not use your data for third-party advertising. If that ever changes, this policy will be updated first and consent obtained where required.
We do not sell your personal data. We share information only as follows:
Under applicable laws, including GDPR and CCPA, you have rights to access, rectify, delete, port, restrict, or object to our processing of your data, and to opt out of any sale or sharing of your data (which we do not do), exercisable by emailing support@imperiamiddleware.com or through the app settings. You may withdraw previously given consent at any time; withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal. Because the app’s core function is AI-generated content, the app cannot operate without the third-party AI processing described in Section 4; if you do not wish your portfolio selections to be processed as described, you may delete your portfolios or your account.
We maintain a written information security program and implement industry-standard technical and organizational measures to safeguard your information. No method of transmission or storage is entirely secure, and you acknowledge the inherent risks of data transmission over the internet. In the event of a suspected or actual data breach involving your personal information, we will notify you and applicable regulators as required by law, including details of the breach and mitigation steps where applicable.
PortCall is a 21+ service. It is not directed to children or to anyone under 21, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 21 (and in no event from children under 13, consistent with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act). Age is verified at onboarding by date of birth, and under-age attempts are blocked at that screen. If we learn that a person under 21 has created an account, we terminate the account immediately and promptly and permanently delete the associated personal data. If you believe a person under 21 is using PortCall, contact us immediately at support@imperiamiddleware.com and we will act on the report without delay.
Account information and portfolio data are retained while your account is active and deleted or de-identified after account deletion, subject to the tombstone record described in Section 4 and any retention required by law. Age-verification records are retained as needed to enforce the age gate. Rendered briefing audio is shared content not associated with your identity and is retained according to our content archival schedule. A summary of our retention schedule is available on request.
Your personal information may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your home jurisdiction, including the United States, where data protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction. By using the app, you consent to this transfer, processing, and storage. Where required by law, we rely on appropriate transfer mechanisms, which may include your explicit consent, Standard Contractual Clauses, or other recognized safeguards.
The app may reference or link to third-party websites or services, and operates within Apple platforms (including CarPlay) governed by Apple’s terms. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties; please review their policies directly.
As of June 2026, PortCall has not received: any National Security Letter; any order under the USA PATRIOT Act, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, or similar statutes; or any other request or mandate from a government authority that would compel us to provide customer data in a manner we are prohibited from disclosing. We publish this statement periodically. If this section is removed or no longer updated, users should understand that the circumstances described above may have changed.
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. Material changes will be communicated via the app or email. Continued use of PortCall after such notification constitutes acceptance of the changes.
