Offers factual video and audio programming through a subscription service, content licensing, bundled and linear distribution, courses and partner sales. Licensing has become a material channel alongside the original SVOD service.
Premium factual programming spans science, history, society, nature, lifestyle and technology. The business began with a subscription video-on-demand service, then expanded to content licensing, bundled SVOD and linear licenses, talks and courses, and partner bulk sales. It handles both video and audio programming. Its stated mission is factual entertainment that informs, enchants and inspires.
Based in Silver Spring, Maryland, the company serves US and international subscription markets. A founder-chairman and operating CEO split leadership responsibilities, while licensing and distribution increasingly shape the business alongside SVOD, including AI-video-training and data licensing.
