Company description

Today, videogaming fans are watching over 3 billion minutes per month of gameplay webcasts, and anyone who can pickup a mouse or an XBOX controller has a shot at becoming a professional gaming star.

We've built a new live webcasting platform that makes it easier and faster for gamers to build their reputation and their audience by integrating competitive challenges and tournament brackets, multi-player video recording, editing and syndication, and audience loyalty and engagement mechanics.

Competitive advantage

Our search and discovery algorithms tied to game mechanics are copyrightable, and we will pursue business method and tech patents as appropriate. We have major advantages in our 3rd party integrations, including an exclusive competitive tournament bracketing system, and a multi-player/multi-angle recording, editing & publishing solution.
