| Frenzi is the gateway to the OTT World, enabling discovery across services and a social platform that celebrates and pays for a fan's passion for cinema, television and web content. With the explosion of shows and OTT platforms, the decision on what to watch has become difficult to make. In other words, OTT viewers are stuck with a 'Problem of Plenty' and a ‘Paradox of Choice’. |
|
| While there are multiple ways in which directories of content are available to consumers today - both on OTT platforms and through standalone options, Frenzi provides a unique and credible blend of recommendations based on one's social circles and layered with tech capabilities built on a AI/ML foundation. The Community Engagement and Rewards layer is what truly differentiates Frenzi and puts the consumer at the core of the entire experience. |
|
| Frenzi has made significant strides in the midst of the lockdown and now the app is well and truly off the blocks. It has already mapped 5 lac+ movies and series across 60+ platforms. The Frenzi community is already half million, strong and growing. The platform has already seen over 2 million searches with 100K plus social interaction and more than 50K plus reviews and ratings. |
|
| "Frenzi is the need of the hour in the growing streaming ecosystem. Consumers are looking for a better way to discover and manage their content at affordable prices. Frenzi brings in ease of discovery, reliability of community and a reward platform that makes multiple subscriptions affordable.", said Balkrishna Hari Singh, Founder and CEO, Frenzi.
|
|
