Revry

Premier Global Streaming Network for the World's LGBTQ CommunityWe started Revry because we saw the need for truly authentic entertainment made for the ever-growing queer community as it is: diverse, outrageous, ground-breaking, and global. In the past, TV channels and VOD services that claimed to represent queer people tended to water down our community, often only focusing on gay white males and superficial stories. Given the size of the LGBTQ+ market ($917 billion in the US and $3.7 trillion worldwide), luckily the new digital age of TV has created an opportunity to disrupt the old TV model and to introduce new upstart voices into the mix to redefine niche TV for a new generation.Revry aims to be the new voice of queer entertainment. More than just TV and film, Revry is breaking the mold by showcasing LGBTQ+ music artists, short films, digital series, and boasting one of the largest queer podcast networks in the world. But Revry is so much more than a simple content platform for a niche audience–Revry is a community. This is why Revry is a lifestyle brand: our mission is not about distributing LGBTQ-themed content; it’s about sharing genuine queer culture with the world. Towards that end, Revry has expanded into 100+ countries, with a reach of 35 million, has closed hundreds of content contracts totaling over 4000 hours, and has streamed over 21 million minutes to its global audience.Since our launch, Revry's unique mission, diverse team of founders, and innovative approach to distribution have been covered by major media outlets including WIRED Magazine, MacWorld, and the Hollywood Reporter. This year, Tubefilter stated that "Revry is making its mark in the niche SVOD world” and Instinct Magazine has written that Revry is “dedicated to showcasing the best entertainment spanning the breadth of the entire queer experience."
