The company is removing the traditional costs and complexities of professional video production, editing, management and distribution. Its design and workflows allow production and distribution of high-end 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, happening primarily on mobile.[3] It was founded in 2013 and now works with many of the largest sports rights owners and media companies globally including La Liga,[4] NHL,[5] Eurosport,[6] Sky Sports,[7] the Brit Awards,[8] FIFA World Cup,[9] Channel 5,[10] ATP World Tour, Ryder Cup, FIA Formula E Championship, UFC,[11] The Championships, Wimbledon,[12] the Premier League, BT Sport, beIN Sports, ATP Media and Real Madrid C.F.[13]

Grabyo ranked 77th in the Financial Times' FT 1000 Europe's Fastest Growing Companies 2018.[14]

Investors

The company's investors include Oliver Slipper, Nicole Junkermann, Cesc Fàbregas, Thierry Henry, Robin van Persie and Tony Parker.[15]

gollark: Oh, I see.
gollark: How is that devilish?
gollark: Create a new section "Bees" %bees.Create a rule "Bee utilization part 1" (%bees-1) in %bees:> The deployment status of bees is considered part of the Game State. No bee action (except for bee deployment) may be taken unless bees are currently deployed. Bee actions include deployment of bees, which makes bees become deployed, cessation of bees, which makes bees not be deployed, and use of bees against a player. The player bees are to be used against must be indicated in the Bee Poll authorizing this action. Use of bees against players causes their Points quantity to be reduced by 1, unless it is already 0, in which case there is no effect.Create a rule "Bee Poll" (%bee-poll) in %polls:> A Bee Poll is required to authorize bees to perform actions, as described in %bees. The default allowed reactions for a Bee Poll are 👍 (representing a vote for) and 👎 (representing a vote against). Bee Polls may be closed if they have existed for 12 hours or more, rather than the usual 24. If a Bee Poll is passed, the action it describes is taken. Players are permitted to use multiple reactions on a Bee Poll.Due to the passage of proposal #207, bees are to be considered "deployed" initially.
gollark: I've had to write up very precisely specified bee utilization/deployment rules for Quonauts, and I'm still worried there might be exploits!
