Playback is the future of sports TV, allowing creators to stream live with their fans
At Playback, we’re building the future of sports TV. We believe sports are at their best when enjoyed together — with your friends, at a bar, or in the stadium — yet online streaming remains a frustratingly solitary experience. We’re making sports streaming a community-first activity by building a home for sports creators (think podcasters) and their communities to hang out watch live games together, all perfectly synced.

Since our founding in 2019, we’ve reached key partnerships with the NBA and EuroLeague, with more leagues and rights coming soon, making Playback the first (and only!) streaming platform to offer users the ability to watch live sports together. We use cutting-edge tech to power the platform, leaning heavily on WebRTC for realtime audio and video.

We’ve raised over $20M from top-tier investors, most recently closing our Series A round. Come help us build the future of live sports!
