Our take

Tubi is a streaming service that was founded in 2014 with the mission of offering subscribers premium television and movies for free. To achieve this, the streaming service relies on ad revenue to support its extensive content library. Rather than focusing on producing original content, Tubi emphasizes acquiring the right to preexisting shows and movies.

Leveraging a business model centred on ad-supported streaming, Tubi has successfully disrupted the highly competitive industry. This approach has resonated with audiences, helping the service amass 51M active subscribers worldwide.

With its recent expansion into the UK, Tubi is poised to tap into a new and diverse audience, further solidifying its position as a major player in the ad-supported streaming market.
