About Make.TV
Make.TV is the leading provider of cloud-based, live video acquisition and management solutions through its Live Video Cloud (“LVC”) platform. Our technology simplifies the creation, organization and routing of myriad live video sources to enable more content to be created and distributed or shared between content creators, producers, and broadcasters at a scale and speed previously not possible.
Make.TV lets broadcasters and producers in the fields of News, Sports, Esports, and Entertainment, acquire and curate an infinite number of live video feeds from mobiles, social media platforms, professional devices and traditional broadcast infrastructure. Using a browser-based continuous support playback multi-view, video streams are easily curated and played out simultaneously to broadcast systems and social media platforms like Facebook Live, YouTube, and Twitch. Make.TV’s live video cloud technology is trusted by leaders in news, sport, entertainment and esports, including ESL, Dreamhack, SportTotal, RTLII, SRF, SWR, Al Jazeera and BR.
The company was founded in Germany (where most of our development team remains) but moved its corporate headquarters to Seattle, Washington in 2016 in connection with our Series A funding. Our investors include Microsoft Ventures (now M12), Voyager Capital and Vulcan Capital.
We believe in maintaining agility by employing flat hierarchies, and we encourage our team members with the freedom to take ownership of their responsibilities. Due to our distributed organizational structure with offices in Seattle, USA and Cologne, Germany and a satellite office in Los Angeles, we support ‘work from remote’ options as well. We care most about getting the work done, although we feel you should visit the beautiful places we chose!
