Ethos

Altair is a "mindfully designed" content creation service whose primary focus is to support the safety and livelihoods of its creators and their communities. The service will operate on the tenants of: transparency, accountability, and community support.

Altair doesn't aim to be bigger than current content creation services — it aims to be better.

Code of Conduct

Words That Inspire Us

Visionaries


The Company

Altair will aim to be a low-profit, socially-minded enterprise. We are in pursuit of a business model that would best suit that purpose. "Altair Interactive, Inc." is registered as a **benefit corporation** or B-corp.

A benefit corporation [provides] positive impact on society, workers, the community and the environment in addition to profit as its legally defined goals, in that the definition of "best interest of the corporation" is specified to include those impacts.

On Bootstrapping

We are opting to not take money from venture capital firms but instead run as a bootstrapped operation supported by those who have a stake in our social successes. We will not be held hostage by a privileged few. There is no exit (sale, merger, or acquisition) strategy. We are in this for the long run.

Because of this, the only stakeholders the platform has are its content creators and their communities. The above designation serves as the foundation for putting the company’s tenants into practice.

As the production of profit will not be a driving factor, the company is able to avoid common pitfalls other streaming services have historically run into. This includes but is not limited to: having the revenue of any particular content creator be of greater importance than the creator’s actions.
