Grabyo is a browser-based live video production suite integrated with popular social media platforms such as Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter and Periscope. The cloud-based technology is used by sports federations and media companies to produce professional-quality live streams and video clips for digital audiences.
The company produces and distributes live shows (such as sports or music events) and video clips (such as pre-match warm-ups, behind-the-scene activities and instant highlights). For example, Grabyo's technology was used by Eurosport to publish over 9,000 social video clips during the winter Olympics.[1] It is used to build digital fan bases, drive TV audiences and generate revenue from third party sponsors and pay-TV subscriptions.[2]
It is benefiting from the rapid growth of video consumption through social platforms.[3] It was founded in 2013 and its customers include major sports rights owners and media companies such as La Liga,[4] NHL,[5] Eurosport,[6] Sky Sports,[7] FIFA World Cup,[8] FIA Formula E Championship, The Championships, Wimbledon,[9] the Premier League and Real Madrid C.F.[10]
Grabyo ranked 77th in the Financial Times' FT 1000 Europe's Fastest Growing Companies 2018.[11]
