"Play" isn't just the name of a button any more. Eko is pioneering a new medium where viewers can shape stories as they unfold. The result is streaming digital interactive video that allows our viewers to affect, control, and influence narrative live-action entertainment. Eko provides the leading technology platform for the creation and delivery of interactive entertainment and partners with media companies, independent creators and top brands to create experiences for highly-engaged, digitally native audiences. Eko Studio, Eko's suite of authoring tools, is also home to a growing community of creators who are crafting their own interactive experiences in Eko’s medium. Eko Studio is for innovative creators who passionately want to reinvent the way we tell stories. It’s easy to use, it’s powerful, and it’s free. Eko Studio allows you to place your audience at the center of the story, harnessing the agency of video games and the emotional intensity of filmmaking. Multiple endings, contradictory perspectives, logic-based conditions, gamification—whatever you can dream up—are easy to publish and can live anywhere. Don't just stand there watching, join the story.

Ever wish you could interact with #SuperBowl commercials? P&G is way ahead of you. They're throwing a party with Sofia Vergara where you decide what happens at whenwecometogether.com. Your choice could make it to air on Sunday! #SofiasSuperBowlParty.

“What we’re exploring, besides just making funny films and pioneering interactive entertainment, are the possibilities around long term partnerships between filmmakers and brands,” says Sandeep Parikh, CEO of Effinfunny. [...] “It used to be that advertisers partnered with TV networks, so you’d never know whose advertisements might appear during your show. But [with eko], filmmakers can decide which brands and retailers are the best fit for the look and feel of the show.” More intentional pairing of content with sponsors means a higher likelihood of clickthroughs and sales. It’s less abrasive to the viewer. A win-win for everyone.
Read more in Forbes about how eko is positioning itself for the future of commerce. You can see Sandeep's latest show, Wizard School Dropout, at eko.com.✨
Statista projected that $11.44 billion U.S. dollars would be spent on product placement in the U.S. in 2019. The future of video entertainment is interactive – creating new advertising opportunities for brands.

"We're building the future of TV. [...] To further these efforts, we are establishing a new state of the art studio in partnership with eko, to pioneer new forms of interactive video. The next stage of the streaming wars will begin when media companies realize you can do more than just put traditional TV and movies on the Internet. When they truly embrace digital, the content itself will start to change, become more personalized, more interactive, more social, more transactional, more global..." We're thrilled about this evolution of our partnership with BuzzFeed.
How we will continue to transform our business
Will podcasting join the interactive entertainment revolution? Steve Henn, lead Content Strategist for News at Google, thinks we're close. “Creating these moments where you can be the voice in someone’s ear, it can be incredibly intimate, but they can actually interact with that experience, is potentially groundbreaking. There is no [podcasting] platform out there today that really allows producers to seamlessly and easily create those choose your own adventure experiences or to enable interactivity. But I think we’re on the cusp of that.” That and other insights at the link, from GeekWire.
More than half of the U.S. population over age 12 has now listened to a podcast, according to Edison Research. The medium has fundamentally altered the landscape for audio content, liberating and…

"Experiences could prove to be another area where retailers need to worry about digital disruption. And Walmart and eko could be giving them a glimpse of the future."
Joan Verdon of Forbes did a deep-dive with us and Walmart on what we've learned from two years of Toy Lab, and what it means for the future of retail.
https://goeko.co/2slYfp7
Walmart has been working with a tech partner to create online experiences that consumers, or their kids, don’t have to leave home for, and that are designed to lead to online sales.
We don't always make good choices.

Yesterday, we did something we’ve never done before: released four brand new, completely interactive shows. Every single episode, every secret storyline and choice-driven twist, all at the same time. There are wizard school dropouts, high schoolers with prophetic phones, a reality show murder mystery, and one truly epic night--but mostly there's a heap of creators and talent who dove boldly into this new technology because they (much like Dee's phone in Timeline) can see the future. Have a look for yourself at the link--we can't wait to see what kinds of stories you create with us. #eko1121
