Streaming distribution
Put your film on TVs in living rooms around the world.
A streaming platform for filmmakers — rentals, purchases, studio subscriptions and the MovieHop Pass. Streaming for All.
Stations for short films
Your short film can earn money. Starting today.
Put it on a curated station that plays back to back like TV, and earn from every pass by the second it is watched. Or curate a station yourself.
Theatrical distribution
Start your theatre distribution now. Don't wait to get lucky.
Deliverables, clearances, a city-by-city plan and a package you can send to a booker.
Live TV and OTT
Make your own TV channel.
Entertainment livestreaming with a schedule, a guide and simulcast — not a gaming stream.
Pitches
Pitch for investment, or for a team.
Build a professional pitch, gate it behind identity checks and NDAs, and see who read it.
CrowdfundingOpenFlix · No. 06
Why wait for investment? Why wait to get lucky? Start crowdfunding today.

Licensing
License your film, your script, your voice, your IP.
Escrowed deals, generated contracts, e-signatures and royalties tracked by watch milestones.
Brand deals
Brand deals for filmmakers and creators.
Sponsorships, product placement and work requests, with the budget held in escrow.
Platform distribution
Submit it once. Send it to every platform OpenFlix delivers to that fits.
Free-with-ads, subscription, rent-or-buy, FAST and vertical apps, each checked against its own requirements. OpenFlix keeps 5% of what they pay.
Monetize your network
You don't need a film. You need the people who make them.
Bring the filmmakers, actors and agents you already know onto the platform, and earn a share of what it makes from their work.
Talent and casting
Be in the film, not just at the premiere.
A profile casting directors can actually find — reels, stills, credits and the roles you are right for. Free for performers.
Crew calls and the film network
Find the crew your film needs, or the film that needs you.
Post a crew call from a preset and book who you pick, or publish a film card and apply in one tap. Matching in both directions, a page and a community for every craft, and a public one-sheet for the project. Free for crew.
SIMDB film databaseOpenFlix · No. 13
Get your film, your cast and your credits on the record.
The film database built for AI filmmaking — full credits, AI performers and the people who voice and move them, the tools behind every title, awards and ratings with the formula published. Free to list and free to claim your page.
The Film Network
Package your film from every side: money, people and buyers.
Department heads first, then the crew they bring, cast, lawyers and buyers, matched to your project, plus introductions to screened investors through Deal Flow. Live action, AI hybrid or AI only.
Living rooms, globally
On the web in 26 languages. And on the television.

Rather be pitched?
Every path is also a three-minute story.
The same paths, argued rather than listed. Swipeable, honest about what it does not do, and it ends where the tile above ends.
None of those? Read this one.
You do not have to make a film to make money here.
If you know the filmmakers rather than being one — casting, an agency roster, a crew list, a graduating year — bring them here and earn a share of what the platform makes from their work. It costs nothing and it does not ask you to sell anything.
