We realize petty and closed-minded methods will never bring complete success and only serve to upset customers. We base our product on industrial standards and openness whenever possible. This ensures broad compatibility, increases our chances of success, and is the right thing to do.
Such radical honesty flies in the face of vendor lock-in, in other words the short-sighted, ultra-proprietary platforms that require allegiance to one brand forever.
With Streamplicity, you watch what you want, and we don't watch you!

History
As early as 2006, founder Marc-Anthony Arena foresaw the cable television industry needing to change. It had to catch up with the rapidly expanding world of original Internet content and barrier-free global delivery. He recognized cable companies and their one-way, too-bad-for-you mentality were about to become obsolete. People wanted to watch anything from anywhere, and he knew it was inevitable. He knew there had to be a better way to watch Internet content on your television, without viruses and popups, and it wasn't going to come from companies forcing people into proprietary schemes.
Marc founded Streamplicity in 2014, as a division of his company Teknosophy, LLC.
After a string of prototypes, he and his engineer Nazmus Sakib decided to base the Model IV on a beautiful hardware platform, the Raspberry Pi 4, which is made in Wales, UK.
We hope you love the device and stay tuned as we continue to simplify streaming!
