Allstar’s Post

On top of all the excitement around our Series A announcement last week I'm happy to have had the opportunity to share more about our company's story with Business Insider. We dove into our journey from my days as an aspiring content creator, to Allstar entering the #creatoreconomy in 2019, all the way through securing our $12M raise this year on the heels of milestones like creating more than 1 clip a second (3.2M+ per month) for over half a million creators. "Spending on video games is projected to reach $184 billion globally, up 0.6% year over year, with the number of worldwide gamers reaching 3.38 billion in 2023, a 6.3% year-over-year increase" Gaming is huge and only getting bigger because it is more than entertainment. It will continue to represent a growing share of where and how people play, create, share, and socially connect. Back when I was a creator, sharing gameplay meant hundreds or thousands of hours of work, from painstaking video capture, to endless curation, careful design and editing, and scrappy distribution to top it all off. Creating content anyone cared about, let alone finding a place you could share it from, wasn't straight forward – especially before the days of Twitch and YouTube. That's why we started Allstar.gg, to turn that entire process into an easy, fast and free experience accessible to everyday gamers. Anyone can create better content than I did back then without hours of effort, pro level software, or top of the line hardware. Customizing content is now easier than equipping in-game cosmetics, and sharing is simpler than posting a selfie.

Thank you Lucia Moses and Business Insider for the thoughtful coverage! To anyone still working right now – Happy Holidays to you and yours and cheers to an even bigger 2024 🙌 #gaming #esports #businessinsider #pitchdeck #startups https://lnkd.in/e6qpQKbY
