About livery

Livery is bringing forth the next generation of livestreaming. We take traditional live video streams and bring them to life with customizable interactive widgets, allowing the audience to “play along” with the live video stream. Our proprietary software creates a transparent layer that displays interactive widgets on top of the livestream, and our clients (the livestream hosts) can customize when, where, and how these widgets appear to their audience. They can create real-time polls, trivia questions, Q&As, guesstimations, and more to make each and every livestream a memorable and fun experience. There are so many ways to apply the Livery technology – from concerts and seminars to wine tasting and sports betting – the only limit is our creativity. If that sounds like a future you want to be a part of, then apply to join our team and let’s make it happen.
