About Us

Welcome to Unhinged Studio

At Unhinged Studio, we don't do "safe." We're a bootstrapped startup with a taste for the weird, the wonderful, and the wildly niche. While others chase the obvious, we dive headfirst into the overlooked and the underexplored—building tools that solve problems most people didn't even know they had.

Our flagship creation, CastBandit, is proof of that mission. It's a magical piece of software that turns podcasts into living, breathing AI chatbots trained entirely on your episodes. Imagine your audience chatting with your voice, your ideas, your stories—24/7. That's what happens when you combine curiosity with a refusal to color inside the lines.

Unhinged Studio exists for creators, dreamers, and anyone bold enough to want more than cookie-cutter solutions. If it's quirky, if it's impossible, if it makes people raise an eyebrow—that's where you'll find us.
