Watch time funds the creators you watch
Arc gives indie filmmakers and documentarians a way to publish vertical series the way television works: seasons, episodes, and a catalog that treats phone-shot work like a show. Apply from the iOS app, upload from your camera roll, assign each chapter to a series with genre and metadata, and submit for review. We transcode to HLS, run moderation, and publish approved work to Discover and arcapp.stream/watch.
Creator revenue comes from a shared fund split by real watch time on your videos. Connect Stripe once in Profile, track pending and paid cycles in Rewards, and receive payouts on a regular schedule. Forum threads tied to each series let viewers follow and discuss your work, while editorial rows on Home and Today's Pick surface standout titles to new audiences.
Founded in Los Angeles. We are a group of creators who built Arc for other creators to bring untold stories and promote art.
