Can I Multistream?

No. Multistreaming paywalled content is not beneficial for the creators, streamers, brands or the platform.

In order to view a stream a viewer must purchase a ticket to the event. Only a purchased ticket will allow you access.

Multistreaming would diminish the value of the event.

What Is Your Split?

We will be starting with a 75/25 commission split. However, as we grow and continue development we will be rolling out additional revenue split structures to continue to support creators

How Do I Reach Affiliate and/or Partner?

We will be releasing a Growth & Success strategy regarding Disko in the future, as we surpass milestones related to growth and channels.

This will re-imagine what “Partner” with a focus on adding real value.

How Do You Measure Success of a Channel?

Gone are the days where view counts are the sole factor in determining success.

We aim to focus on quality, entertainment value, and ticket sales in addition to viewership and social metrics when evaluating any channel on Disko

What Is Your Approach Regarding Diversity & Inclusivity?

Disko has established sections to spotlight and promote diversity within our social platform and within our platform’s communities

How Does Chat Work?

Chat will not be visible on live stream, but will remain a key component.

We believe it’s safer, more efficient, and offers a better viewer experience when chat is kept separate.

Each creator on Disko will have their own dedicated social hub (Group) on Disko equipped with a forum and a live feed to keep your fans engaged and chatting before, during and after a stream.

Creators can manage chat more efficiently and won’t have to worry about chat potentially impacting a live stream or a viewer’s experience, making your content more appealing to potential advertisers, business partners, and collaborators.

Why Won't Viewer Numbers Be Public During a Live Stream?

We want to ensure that view counts do not dictate viewership decisions for an audience.

Creators will be able to see their live view counts, but viewers will not, allowing the creator to focus on a great streaming event and the viewer to focus on the entertainment

How Can I Get Verified on Disko?

Verification on Disko will be directly linked to Verification on Gamactica, meaning that you must be verified on Gamactica. Being verified on Gamactica means you’re verified on Disko.

Our approach to Verification is aimed at returning value and “prestige” to Verification. Therefore, we are mirroring much of the old Verification requirements that were in place at Twitter prior to the change of ownership

How Will Advertisements Operate?

Advertisements will be rolled out within a future Level (version/release) of Disko.

With that being said, we plan to give Creators a bit more control over ads so that they A. do not interrupt a stream abruptly, and B. open up a new revenue stream for creators.

Streaming Platforms are Costly to Run, How Will Disko Succeed?

We are not positioning Disko as a competitor of Twitch or other popular live-streaming platforms.

However, we have given great consideration to this during our planning process regarding Disko and we are confident we have a sustainable model to allow us to grow, scale, and succeed.

Limiting streams to 3 hour durations not only benefits the creators and the audiences, but also helps us keep server utilization manageable.

Additionally, we are not positioned as a company that relies solely on streaming and/or advertising revenue to survive, as we are built on other structures of revenue.

What Is Your Approach to Moderation?

With Disko and Gamactica being completely integrated, we believe this will go a long way in effective moderation and moderation control for creators and brand.

While we understand that there may always be the risk of toxicity and harassment, we feel that the collective platform elements will give creators and brands more moderation control and protection.

First, having live-streams only viewable to those who have purchased access (tickets) is one layer of protection.

Second, with our approach to Chat (being off-screen and within a Group), we feel this adds a more efficient layer of moderation, as brand owners and creators can remove problematic viewers from their communities easily. Additionally, Groups have a number of features that allow Creators to appoint members as Moderators or Co-Organizers so they can moderate your Group, and your Group’s social feed while you focus on content.

How Can I Introduce My Content/Brand to Disko for Consideration?

We will be onboarding a select number of creators for a closed beta in the future (testing purposes). We are capping this at a certain number of channels, that we determine will strike a balance between testing and efficiency.
