Introducing Locals.tv, our new local video app
Today we're introducing our new video app and platform, Locals.tv, to Canada.
Since December 2024, we've been testing and iterating on the product after receiving tons of feedback from local creators.
We're confident we now have the beginnings of something great for our business, local creators and local businesses.
It's the first video platform in Canada where we incentivize creators for licensing their content from day 1.
What started off as a way for us to bring more local UGC to our website properties has evolved into a Creator monetization platform that empowers local creators to build sustainable business models with the power of our distribution.
Here are a few defining features of Locals.tv
- Creators can start monetizing their videos from day 1, as long as they approved and verified (it's free)
- Users can "Reward" creators by watching short video ads
- Creators can create and send Collab Proposals to small businesses and add-on @narcity Instagram pages for extra reach
- Businesses can accept and pay for Collab proposals directly in the platform
- Videos on Locals.tv get propagated and embedded across Narcity.com and MTLBlog.com for additional exposure
We're truly excited for Locals.tv and the impact that our platform can have on the local media economy.
