What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built an on-demand streaming service offering 1,000+ hours of Black films, shows, and web series, available anytime and anywhere with subtitles or dubbing tailored by market. Our library includes licensed content from major studios like Warner Brothers and Sony. It's accessible on Smart TVs, mobile devices, and web browsers across Europe and Africa.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live and work in Paris, Île-de-France, France, and plan to keep Afrostream based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Paris gives us access to European distribution partners and telecom operators like TF1 and Orange who have signed with us. It's also a hub for reaching the 15 million people of African descent in Europe and easily connects us to Africa.

아닙니다. Y Combinator는 제출된 지원서를 비공개로 유지합니다. 이것은 재구성된 것입니다. 실제 YC 양식 질문에 Afrostream의 공개 데이터(출시 노트, 창업자 배경, 제품 설명)를 기반으로 답변했습니다. Afrostream과 같은 회사가 YC에 어떻게 자신을 소개하는지 보여주며, 그들이 제출한 텍스트는 아닙니다.
