The Company has achieved commercial success with apps available in both the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store. The apps support user to user communication in the form of text messaging, sharing of content in real time including live audio and video, in a manner that is compatible with most popular media players and streaming services.
The Company’s core technology dates back to 2009 and has grown through in-house software development as well as acquisition of software and patents. The iOS and Android platforms are customizable for any industry vertical where audio coincides with other multimedia content such as user-generated video clips or artist music videos. The same codebase may be compiled and distributed with a variety of customizations for brands, individual artists, labels, or product segments.

- Subscription, including a revenue sharing arrangement between the Company and specific content providers including celebrity white-labeled fan apps as well as media copyright holders.
- Ad Inventory – traditional and targeted ads
- Brand Activations – pre-game sponsorship opportunities, brand wraps, etc.
