Founded by a group of technology and product enthusiasts, we set out to build the future of television by combining the best of modern technology with the most compelling medium ever invented—delivering the TV experience we've always wanted for ourselves.
At our core, Philo provides an affordable, easy-to-use streaming platform that gives users access to 100+ live TV channels, thousands of on-demand shows and movies, and unlimited cloud DVR storage. We focus on delivering exceptional entertainment and lifestyle content from networks like AMC, HGTV, Food Network, Comedy Central, MTV, Discovery, A&E, Hallmark, and many more—all without the high cost of traditional cable.
What sets us apart is our commitment to leveraging cutting-edge technology to enhance the viewing experience. We utilize cloud delivery, modern tech stacks, machine learning, and hand-crafted native app experiences across all major platforms including Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, Samsung, LG, Vizio, iOS, Android, and web. Our recommendation systems use advanced algorithms to personalize content discovery, helping users find shows they'll love every time they open the app.
We're also pioneering next-generation features like multi-screen and multi-user playback experiences, allowing households to watch different content simultaneously across devices. Our unlimited cloud DVR means users never have to worry about storage limits or choosing what to record—they can save everything and watch on their own schedule.
Beyond the technology, Philo is built on a simple belief: great television should be accessible and affordable. We've designed our service to be straightforward and transparent, with no hidden fees, no complicated bundles, and no long-term contracts.
