Independent Film & Theater Landscape

Empowering Independent Film & Theater with Revenue, Reach, and Resources

IFT Network is a comprehensive platform built to empower indie filmmakers and live theater producers. Through our exclusive ProducerPay® Program, we share 50% of monthly revenue across all titles, enabling creators to earn consistently while maintaining full control of their films and shows.

With our free Roku FAST channel, creators’ work reaches new audiences on a major streaming service, expanding their visibility and support. Each title benefits from custom marketing campaigns, amplifying its reach.

By joining IFT Network, you’re not just a member, but a part of a vibrant and growing community of independent thinkers and creatives. Together, we can reshape the future of film and theater, and create a more inclusive, engaging, and authentic entertainment landscape.

Update as of December 2024

Revenue Sharing Model

The ProducerPay® Program shares 50% of our monthly revenue with filmmakers, creating a reliable income stream for independent creators.

This groundbreaking model aligns the interests of filmmakers, audiences, and the platform, fostering collective success while lowering barriers to entry.

Overlooked Market Opportunity

Independent Film and Theater is a global, underrepresented community that parallels a startup ecosystem. Indie Producers invest tens of thousands of dollars into their projects, with little to no ROI strategy.

Film Festival Partnerships

Our GTM strategy includes partnering with the top festivals from 14,000+ global film festivals to showcase IFT Network, connect with filmmakers, and grow our audience. These festivals act as a key pipeline to attract filmmakers and audiences.

Revenue Milestones

BETA 1 Generated $85k in gross revenue in 2022, demonstrating early traction and demand.

Making Monthly Recurring Revenue (MMR) with growing customer retention, even as we expand.

Adapted through the 2023 actor/writer strikes, rebuilding BETA 2 in 2024 with new apps, a revamped website, and a Roku FAST Channel launch.

A Community-First Ecosystem

Offering more than just a streaming platform: IFT Network includes script development, production support, marketing services, and revenue sharing, creating a complete ecosystem for filmmakers and theater producers.

Successfully established a global community of creators, audiences, and advocates, with active representation in the US, Latin America, and beyond.

Expansion Potential

The US and LatAm are primary target markets, with vast growth potential in untapped regions. SOURCE

Supported by advocates like Andres Cano (Pygma) and Rafael Barroso (ApplePay), among others, we are uniquely positioned to tap into these regions with strategic partnerships and tailored outreach.

Low Barriers, High Opportunity

No upfront costs for filmmakers and producers to showcase their work—unlike traditional distribution models.

A low threshold of just 2,000 monthly paid users is enough to reach sustainable revenue, supported by a unique go-to-market strategy.

Proven Dedication

Bootstrapped, building a strong, stable app and platform that’s now go-to-market ready.

Our Script Development Space, running 3+ years, has cultivated valuable Intellectual Property (IP) that’s highly coveted by larger studios and producers. We have script readings scheduled through April 2025.
