Feature Gaming
Crunchbase | Website | Twitter | Facebook | Linkedin
Streamers are offline for 12+ hours a day and any additional time offline like taking a couple days off or going on vacation can directly impact their revenue potential. In short, anytime away from streaming is money lost.
It causes a drop in viewership and engagement which leads to a decrease in subscriptions, donations and bit cheers from twitch followers. It can also lead to a drop in advertising revenue from twitch, weaker results for their sponsors, and decreased merchandise and affiliate sales.
Our team has developed a platform that enables streamers to host their own gaming tournaments for their fans and viewers to play in. We’re making it easy for streamers to find sponsors for their events by automatically providing them with a list of companies willing to sponsor the event and give away prizes like merchandise, digital experiences (for example, playing with the streamer during their stream), free trials, and much more.
Our mission is to make esports competitions available to all gamers and we’re working with streamers to make that happen. Now, anyone can compete in tournaments with games like Fortnite, League of Legends, PUBG, and CS:GO..

We create the next generation of online events Pipereye allows content organisers to raise the experience of online concerts to the next level. Our technology allows artists to activate their global fan base, allowing each viewer to interact with their favourite artists in real-time.
Viewers can also interact with each other and participate in global fan activities. This allows artists to attract a global audience which is much larger than even the biggest of world tours.
For the concert organizers, we provide a set of tools that allow concert organisers to create interactive shows with full immersive experience for the audience. Our show format allows viewers to interact with the artist in real-time, affect the show and participate in challenges on the global scale.
Viewers can be part of the online audience visible to the artists. Viewers can applause, sing-along and affect the lighting of the stage as if they were right in the front row.
Each viewer can choose between several vantage points, allowing to watch lead singer, his band or the audience at any time during the show. Performances can be organised in unique locations such as roof-tops, libraries, small theatres, beach and have millions of people watching the show, offering them a novel and exciting experience..
