About Podcast Television - Streaming TV Template & SDK
PTV is like OBS meets Twitch but on your own website or in your own apps
In 1996, I had the opportunity to work alongside Josh Harris (we live in public) at Pseudo Programs during the early days of streaming television. That experience shaped the direction of my career and sparked a question I've been chasing ever since: What if television had been built on the web instead of around traditional broadcasting? Over the years I've led technology teams, served as CTO of an internet company during the early web, and developed software for companies including Sony (PlayStation Portable), NBC Interactive, and Levi's. Those experiences ultimately led me back to the idea that first inspired me nearly three decades ago. Podcast Television is the result. Imagine if OBS, Twitch, and a television network were combined into a single browser-based platform. A creator can launch an entire live television channel from their own website, complete with an AI Co-Pilot, production studio, electronic program guide (EPG), real-time graphics, picture-in-picture, web widgets, chat, shopping, companion experiences, and interactive overlays that can be added, moved, or removed while the broadcast is already live. This isn't just a prototype. The platform has been under development for years. We've had real beta users, real clients, real-world testing, and generated revenue while refining the technology. Those experiences helped shape the product and prove there is genuine interest in a different approach to streaming and interactive television. Now we're at an inflection point. The foundation is built. The software works. The intellectual property has been filed. The demos are live. What matters now is execution. We're moving aggressively toward commercial launch and are looking for someone who wants to help take a proven platform from "this is incredible" to "this is everywhere." I'm looking for someone who shares the belief that technology can improve people's lives and wants to help bring this platform to the world. Someone who sees the potential not just in the software, but in the opportunity to make powerful broadcasting tools accessible to creators, businesses, educators, communities, and organizations of every size. If you believe this technology deserves to exist—and deserves to reach millions of people—we need your help. Let's build it together. Just as important, I'm open-minded about how we get there. Whether the future includes commercial licensing, enterprise partnerships, developer tools, open source components, or a hybrid model, my priority is building technology that people genuinely love and making it accessible enough to achieve broad adoption. This feels like a full-circle moment in my career. After decades in streaming and interactive media, I finally have the opportunity to build the platform I always wished existed. If you've been waiting for the chance to help build something that could genuinely change the future of streaming and interactive television, I think we should talk.

Who they are looking for
<p>I'm looking for someone who is prepared to take an active ownership role in the company. The exact equity structure, responsibilities, and any investment will be determined together based on what each of us brings to the table. I'm looking for a long-term partnership built on trust, transparency, shared decision-making, and a mutual commitment to building something exceptional.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>To ensure everything is handled professionally and fairly, I work with intellectual property attorney Bob Fish of Fish IP Law. Any partnership agreements, equity allocations, investment terms, ownership structure, licensing arrangements, or other legal documentation will be prepared through the firm so that expectations are clearly defined and everyone's interests are properly protected from the very beginning.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Most importantly, I want to enjoy the journey. Building a company is challenging enough without ego getting in the way. I value honesty, curiosity, respect, and a willingness to solve problems together. If we share the same vision, I believe we can build something that has a lasting impact.</p>
