About

Blip.tv was a video hosting and distribution platform founded in May 2005 specifically for independent web series creators. Unlike YouTube, Blip focused on episodic, serialized content and gave producers a full suite of tools to host, distribute, and monetize their web shows across the web. At its peak the platform served over 1 billion views per quarter. Blip raised multiple venture rounds and was acquired by Maker Studios in 2013, which subsequently shut down the platform in August 2015.

Summary

Blip.tv is a Media company based in New York, United States, founded in 2005. It has raised $6.0M in total across 1 round, most recently a $6.0M Venture Round in Dec 2011.
