Flits

Seed Round in 2018
Flits is a mobile-first platform that facilitates high-fidelity video livestreaming for artists and concertgoers. The platform allows users to broadcast their music activities in real-time, enhancing the experience for both the performers and their audience. By enabling fans to livestream from concerts, Flits ensures that the audio quality is optimized by matching the broadcast with the sound from the mixing console. This technology allows users to share the concert experience with followers who are unable to attend, providing them with the same immersive sound and atmosphere. Flits aims to connect local artists with a broader audience, making it easier for them to showcase their performances and for fans to enjoy live music from anywhere.
