Fylm TV is a creator economy platform offering a Netflix‑style viewing experience, curating high‑quality independent films, shorts, and series while giving filmmakers built‑in monetization and audience engagement tools. As films gain views, revenue, and engagement, IP buyers and studios can track traction to pursue acquisition deals through the platform. We operate on a freemium model and generate revenue through advertising, subscriptions, and marketplace commissions from merch, donations, and future IP deals.

Alongside the platform, we are hosting the Fylm TV Film Festival, a 3‑day event in Detroit designed to bring together filmmakers, entertainment‑tech startups, industry professionals, and audiences. The festival will feature film screenings, networking events, workshops, exhibitor booths, and opportunities for filmmakers to connect with new audiences and resources. This will be our first annual event, currently scheduled for November 2026.
