Our take
Video games have become highly social experiences due to multiplayer gaming, eSports and social media, spawning a huge market for audiences who enjoy watching gaming-related video content. Gamers commonly stream games and edit the footage to produce memes and engage with friends, but this requires many software tools and a separate platform on which to share experiences.
Medal provides a social platform for gaming video clips. It allows users to record and edit footage, make gaming memes, and share content with friends from one place. While the company competes with platform giants like Twitch, it stands out by being specifically designed for gaming content. It also collects in-game data to mitigate cheating and cyberbullying, and integrates directly into any Windows or Android game.
In 2025, Medal spun out "General Intuition", and has since been hiring to both its own and the new company's team. General Intuition's mission is to build a new class of models that can perceive, predict and act in both virtual and physical environments. It is leveraging Medal's vast datasets to this end, reducing the limitations on machine intelligence by training AI on interaction and exploration rather than just written words.
